what is happening?

I'm on baby #3 and I have never had anything happen like this with my other two. This baby is giving me a run for my money. I'm 33 weeks and already having contractions that stop me in my tracks and yesterday I could barely walk while I was making dinner. I kept having to sit and felt like I couldn't get air. My hips felt like they were being ripped apart and my cervix felt the same way. It was a lot like when the doctor checks you for dilation. It stung like crazy. I've never had any of my children vaginally both were c-section and this one is c-section also. Is this normal do you think?
