If I use the Ready action to ready a spell for some trigger, is that using my Concentration?  If I take damage before my spell is triggered, so I need to roll Concentration to see if I lose the spell?

Correct, as per the description of Ready (PHB p. 193). Further, as per discussions about this in other threads and tweets from Jeremy Crawford, if the spell is lost, so is the spell slot.
