30 Weeks Pregnant. Severe Belly Pain. Stops After Using The Bathroom. Pre-term Labor?

I am 30 weeks pregnant on baby #2 (my daughter will be 12 months in a few days). For the past 2-3 days I have had random spurts of severe belly pain and I feel like I m going into labor. After I go to the bathroom it stops. It s not diarreah either so I m confused. I also have a history of pre-term labor. Could that be what it is this time as well?

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Abdominal pain during pregnancy should always be taken seriously, even if it is just a stomach upset you should see your doctor as soon as possible to exclude the possibility of preterm labor & other obstetric complications & also to assure the health of yourself & your baby.
You are more at risk of preterm labor in view of your history so take it seriously.
All the best
