mad.. rant

My midwife wouldn't listen to my symptoms. My chest and stomach hurt really bad for 3 straight hours.. I cried a lot.. She gave me a pat on the back and said "it's okay".. I was so mad.. I'm 40w1d and she told me there is nothing they can do about it.. Seriously?? It is the worst pain I've ever experienced.. I'd rather get stabbed.. A little dramatic, I know.. But I don't know what to do.. My chest, stomach and back hurt a lot.. I know it's not contractions because I've been to the hospital and they told me that it wasn't.. What could it be

Ugh it happens to me too girl. All my Dr has to say about it is, "your baby is big, so it's normal." ...smh. Taking baths helps. And icy/hot cream.

I get a really bad stabbing pain like that, is it high in your stomach? Almost to your ribs? My dr said that it was a muscle cramp because she's so big already and stretching it out past it's max so it cramps up sometimes
