Hello Atkaran,

Thanks for posting
From your description, it will be hard to tell without being able to physically examine you to tell if the pain is not due to braxton hicks contractions or due to labor ( preterm). The fact that you presented with a chest infection during pregnancy is a risk factor for preterm labor. Your gynobs would need to evaluate you as soon as possible to different the origin of the pain. If just braxton hicks then you need not worry. But if they are labor contractions, then immediate management plan has to be put into place to prevent preterm delivery. Do visit an ER as soon as possible

Hope this helps
