Hi,
These types of problems may be seen when the full bladder presses on the pregnant uterus causing a sensation of pressure in third trimester of pregnancy.

Kindly regularly pass urine at regular intervals.Also do some mild pelvic exercises approved during pregnancy.
During third trimester false pains may arise as a result of gradual increase in uterine contractions.

thanks
