I've read every single book I could get my hands on about pregnancy but they're always so vague. I have been having pressure in my lower abdomen on and off, a weird tingly pain in my pubic bone, and a ton of braxton hicks contractions. I'm 34 weeks. What is going on with me? Apparantly I might have a kidney stone. I know they cause backache but would they cause the pressure and pain in my lower areas? I just don't feel right today...

It cannot be that. I have had so much water that I could burst. I drink at least 20 oz. Every half hour. I'm soooooo sick of water. I miss caffeine! Sad
