Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the tightness feeling of abdomen and pelvic pressure might be the signs of preterm labour.The causes of preterm pains
are dehydration,excess physical strain,any urine infections,vaginal infections etc.So I suggest you to consult doctor and rule out the cause.Take adequate fluids upto 3 litres to prevent urine infections.
Best regards...Dr.srilatha
