Hi,
Thanks for the query.
During the later weeks of pregnancy, some amount of tightening of the abdomen is common.
These are called Braxton Hicks contractions.
Because of increasing size of the uterus, some amount of pressure can fall on the abdominal structures.
But as you mentioned greenish discharge, better to consult gynecologist once and get examined.
After examination she can rule out the possibility of leakage of liquor.
After ruling out that, you can continue the pregnancy with symptomatic treatment.
Take care.
