Pain at top centre of bump??

Hi all,

I am coming up to 37 weeks pregnant with my third. I have been getting the usual aches and pains for a while but the past week has become unbearable. By the evening I can hardly move. The top centre of my bump feels like it's being ripped apart. I suffered with diastasis recti with my second which has improved over the years. However, right now I can't cough, sneeze, roll over in bed, get up off the sofa without the top of my stomach feeling like it's being ripped. This also may be a little TMI but when I got to the bathroom I can barely push at all without the stomach tearing feeling.... I am so worried this will affect my ability to push and have baby naturally.

I am wondering if I need to contact the midwife about this before my next appt? This is scheduled for 4th Jan. Does this just sound like muscle pain and how am I to deal with it? I can barely get anything done right now!
