Contractions feel like bad cramps to the 100th degree! The fact that you feel like your being stabbed could be contractions. Your abdomen tightening is also another sign. Your still early (35 weeks) so they could be braxton hicks. As long as they come and go you might be ok. I would call your OB just to be certain though.
Venus - I have felt the cervical/vaginal pain you describe as well. I know Sam has been feeling it too. It think I started noticing at around 36 weeks, i just figured to was my cervix dilating or thinning or whatever. I dont think its a sign of labor though, as I am 40 weeks on monday and still no labor here! As always, if you are worried call your doc, but im sure you are fine. :)
Ashlee, you said that as if she was in danger of giving birth any second! The pains she is describing sound normal to me. I've been having them for weeks and still no baby here. :)
Venus, of course if you are in a lot of pain or feel like labor has begun then you should call your OB and see if they want you to go to Labor and Delivery at the hospital - IF you need to be seen it would be there, not the ER...but from what you have described, you are feeling things that are completely normal this far into pregnancy.
Try to relax and see how you feel in a few hours. :)

Venus, it could actually be pressure of the baby on the cervix.. I had that a lot from about 34+ weeks.... Also, it's my understanding that round ligament pain can sometimes send referral pain to the vagina. Probably a good idea to talk to the dr if you are feeling concerned, to at least get peace of mind
hi venus, i had this with my 2 boys , it turned out to be the baby turning head down and preassure from the head. also if the babys head is in the engaged possition it will feel very uncomfy and as u described. when you go to your next check up ask them to feel baby position. its not a bad thing to have head down and engaged at all, stleast u know he/she wont be breach :)
hi Erin my appointment went well.My ob said it happnes like ur body is getting ready and baby's head is putting pressure but i aksed her to check my cervix but she refused she said she wil do it once i hit 36 week .i am mad at her.she did my Group B test.I even asked her what abt labot induction if i dont make it on due date she said I have to be 10 days overdue otherwise she wont do.
I want my baby soon.
Erin I am with u I understand how painful it is.

Venus, believe me, I know how bad you want your baby...but it really is still to early. My doc wont induce til 10 days overdue either, which is why my date is scheduled for Wed the 23rd...seems like forever away. I am 40w2d preggo and feel like I have been pregnant for centuries...lol... Hoping she comes on her own before the 23rd.
Great to hear that everything was ok and it was normal pains! Oh the fun of bring pregnant at this point!! :) It is interesting.........you want to be pregnant so bad and then love it. Carry the child for at least 34 weeks and are so ready for it to be over at that point! :) You just want them here and want you body back! I coompletely understand and remember! Hugs to you sweetie!
Sounds like it! That is when I would get mine too....after my walks. or during. Then with rest and water they would stop. Just an over all tightening of the stomach. It really shouldn't cause pain, but my were uncomfortable. Now if you get them and they don't stop with rest and water then it may be the real thing. Good luck!
