38 WKS PREGNANT, SEVERE STOMACH PAIN?

I've been having this strong pain in my actual stomach (between lower breast area) since a few days now. Tums don't help anymore. It is a consistent pain. What could it be?

I also have to say that I suffer a lot of heartburn since I started out with this pregancy, and I have been taking tums daily since month.

Also, since a few days I have been getting what feels like painful contractions, but only the upper half (above belly button) gets rock hard. The bottom half stays soft. I get those several times a day, but not on a regular schedule. Every time this happens, my upper half stays rock hard for 5-10 minutes at a time! It is really painful. What is that?

    i doubt its anything serious, you get all sorts of pains in pregnancy, from strong pains to mild, it could be that your baby is resting somewere thats hurting you.im on my third pregnancy now, and still worry everytime i get an ache or pain. the other pains you are feeling could be braxton hicks. as long as your not bleeding and you have been able to feel the baby moving around it should be ok. but dont leave it, contact a professional like your midwife or GP. good luck
