I have had my membranes stripped twice, reason is my last child was 9 lbs 8 oz. didn't want another huge baby and military will let you go over 2 weeks. Did that and itsn't fun. I want my last pregnancy to be a good memory. So In saying that my stomach keeps hurting, even worse when I lay down. Anyone experienced this before.. Been going on for about 5 days on and off.

Becky, I think you should make sure your doc knows about this pain. I mean, you've been through all this before and if this is different from anything you have experienced before, I would be sure he/she knows about it. I mean, you know what contractions feel like and if you are having a "different pain" it makes me worry about placental or uterus abruption. Trust your instincts and your gut feeling if you feel something isn't quite right. I hope this didn't scare you, but I know you'd rather be safe than sorry.
Congratulations to you and your growing family!

Its just the stresses of your womb carrying your baby,
If something was really wrong, trust me you would know,
I would urge you to get as much rest as possible, have lots of soaks in the bath as this will help you relax,
Apart from feeling achey, and so long as you feel ok other than that, I really wouldn't worry.
With my last baby I could barely stand, my calves were in complete pain and my back was really concerning,
How about trying to bring on the labour yourself, as if labour is impending this is perfectly safe,
Try baths and lovemaking if possible as this can start off labour,
I'm sure if you do these things it will happen

You are probably stretched to the gills and baby doesn't have much room. Don't lay flat on your back it just puts too much pressure on your diaphram. Hang in there it's almost over. Labor may be close, pains may be an indicator and body just preparing itself since membrames were stripped.

Your stomach is stretching. You need a product called Mother's friend. It helps to sooth the skin while it stretches. It also helps with the stretch marks. Hold on you don't have that long.
