Pregnant, Have To Repeat C Section, Valamentous Cord On Side Of Placenta, Slight Brown Discharge. Should I Worry ?

Hi I'm 37 weeks into third baby. I have to have a repeat c section. I also have a cord on side of placenta they call it valamentous cord insertion. I have had sever back pains for two days but just thought it was my lower back I did have surgery after my second child. Now I'm sick to my stomach it stays hard and I can't pass my bowels. I have a slight brownish discharge. At times I fel pressure. My last appointment dr said he could feel babies head but still pus it up so not engaged. Should I be concerned?
