Belly pains

So, had an ultrasound a couple weeks back. And my midwives are worried that the baby seems so small. (4 pounds at 35 weeks) I'm 38 weeks as of tomorrow, and I have been under orders to eat, eat, eat. Garg. It's hard.

But I'm finding what's even harder is that yesterday I started having little contractions. I do NOT feel like eating when my belly is aching every 15 minutes. But, as the contractions are very far apart and sporadic and only in the upper part of my belly, my midwife thinks they're braxton hicks (practice) contractions. nonetheless, they make me not hungry. But everyone is telling me to eat eat eat.
