Hi and thanks for the query,
After 34 completed weeks of pregnancy, it is very safe to deliver a baby, for the lungs of the baby at this age are considered mature. I would suggest you get in contact with the hospital services to get a clear examination. A vaginal examination and other clinical parameters would determine if you are in labor or in imminent labor already. Thanks and kind regards
