I'm now 37 weeks and 1 day pregnant, and have been experiencing sharp, stabbing pains at the upper abdomen since yesterday evening. At first i thought it might be gastric pain, but i've been experiencing the pains a few times per hour ever since then, and i'm still getting it now.
The pain isn't caused by baby moving, and doesn't go away when i change position. Its intensity and duration varies from just a mild twinge to sharp, stabbing pains lasting for a few seconds, and comes at irregular intervals; sometimes 2-3 minutes apart, or perhaps 10-20 min before the next.
It doesn't seem like labour pains to me, dont't think its BH either... has anyone had this before?
But anyway i called the Kandang Kerbau Hospital helpline this morning, and all the nurse said was to monitor the pains and go to the KK delivery ward if it worsens.
I'm seeing the doctor tomorrow noon, should i just wait til i see him to ask about the pain?
Can the pains i'm describing be a sign of labour? I've only heard that labour pains are like menstrual cramps...
