I am 27 weeks pregnant. is it normal to feel a lot a pressure in my lower abdominal area?

Pressure vs pain: It's is normal to feel aching, pressure, or pulling because the baby grows ALOT in weeks 25-30. If you have pain that also stings when you urinate, that may be a UTI. If the pain is a strong tightening up or cramping up of your uterus, that is a contraction. Small contractions are normal if you get overtired, but if you have a lot of pain, UTI symptoms, or regular contractions, please call your OB
