Is this it??

Question

Sharp pains in lower abdomen/pelvis area and stabbing types pains in vagina. Im not dehydrated, im lying down, have tried walking around. Its coming and going but no patterns just random but painful. Almost 34 weeks

Answer

I don’t think so. Contractions shouldn’t feel like sharp stabbing pains. It’s more of an intense squeezing sensation, like intense period cramps. The sharp pain may be pinched nerve. Braxton Hicks picks up significantly at the end of pregnancy.

Answer

I never felt sharp stabbing pains but more like cramping that had a pattern and then increased in intensity. I get sharp pains walking sometimes which are called lightning crotch and literally stop me in my tracks. It can happen multiple times in a short period of time

Answer

Labor is different for everyone but for me it was very consistent contractions and increasing in intensity. Not stabbing pain but like waves of intense menstrual cramp type pain wrapping from my back to my front. It never hurts to call your doctor or to get checked out though!

Answer

Does it stop when you take a warm shower or bath?
