Q: pressure on bladder and green bowel movement

I am 31 weeks along and everything has been going smoothly, but...
I had trouble sleeping last night/early this morning because of some strangeness going on in my pelvis. There's been a lot of pressure on my bladder and almost a feeling like having a UTI...some soreness and much discomfort.
I've made sure that I've been very hydrated today in case that was the problem, but I've been urinating about every hour or so and it's clear.
I also just had a bowel movement and it was green.
Should I be worried?
Does anyone know what's going on?

I had green bms and a ton of pressure on my bladder towards the end of my pregnancy and i just thought it was cuz my son had began to "drop" (explaining the pressure) and green poo was a way my body was cleaning itself out? i cant explain the poo but it became diareah in the last few weeks of my pregnancy. i dont think its any reason for concern but talk to your dr.if your worried. pregnancy is an experience no1 can explain and what you feel can be diff from any other prego women. i know i felt a lot of discomfort in the end tho. goodluck.
