Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
Your current symptoms do not sound normal. Since you have had history of previous cesarean, do not delay in going ahead with an examination by your obstetrician/gynecologist to see what could be the cause behind your symptoms. An ultrasound scan along with tests to look for uterine action needs to be done to prevent complications of rupture and premature labor.
Take care.
