Very uncomfortable symptoms...need some advice please!

This is my first time posting here (i have read through a lot of posts though) and i was wondering if anyone could tell me if what im going through is normal or i should be worried (i am a first timer so i have no clue).

I was feeling fine the start of the day, im 37 weeks so def. have to pee more then normal but not long after lunch i started to feel like i had to pee like all the time and when i say all the time i mean like i have that "urge" all...the...time! I feel like i just need to sit on the toilet and not move, but when i go in there to pee, even though i feel like im about to pee my pants, i pee out probably less then a tbsp.

Also when the feeling like i need to pee all the time started my lower back started KILLING me! I took some Tylenol and that didnt really do anything and neither has the heating pad. 

I have been having BH contractions for weeks now and they are not painful and it doesnt seem like those have changed any so i assume im not in labor (seeing as those are supposed to be pretty painful from what ive been told lol).

I have an appointment tomorrow with my OB, is this something that i should be super worried about? Like call the doctor?

Probably just baby's position lowering. You could ask about possible UTI, that's the only thing I could think of that would be a concern.

Could be baby but this happened to me when I had kidney stones!! Some times they can be caused by pregnancy I had to have surgery after I was pregnant

I second the UTI/kidney stones but the only way to know for sure is to call the doctor.

I would call doc- I thought I had a uti and back pain was one of the things they warned me to watch for and call about- you don't want to mess around with an infection while pregnant

Sounds exactly like me. I wouldn't worry yourself. Just mention it at your dr appt. tomorrow. I had nothing wrong just a week or two like that around the same time. I'm 39+6 now and fine. Good luck!

I had a UTI in early pregnancy and much of what you're saying was applicable to me too. So it could be either a bladder infection, or if it's really progressed could be a kidney infection. So definitely ask your doctor to check for those

Drinking cranberry juice should help.

Thanks for the advice ladies.
I called my doc and he said to drink a lot of water and cranberry juice and if I could hold out till tomorrow then he would check everything but if I started to feel worse go to the hospital.
I've been drinking so much water I feel like I'm drowning and cranberry juice and I am feeling a little better...the peeing isn't as bad as it was and the back pain has gone down (but still there).

H20 and Azo, just like the commercial says. utI's are the worst. So sorry you are suffering. Feel better.
