Updated: Pinching Pain! Please Comment!?

Update: **went into the ER Sunday night. They couldn't figure out why I was having pain in my belly button so they decided to keep me over night so they could watch me. They gave me so many bags of liquid through my IV I literally looked like a Pillsbury dough boy! They sent off my urine and I found out I had a UTI. All through that night they tried giving me pain medicine but I refused bc I didn't know what affect it would have on my baby. At 5am one of the doctors came in a checked my cervix bc I was having contractions. I was already 1cm &1/2 dialated. He then told me I habe to take the pain medication to relax my uterus to stop contractions or they were going to fly me to a different hospital. So obviously I took the medicine and they also gave me shots of steroids for my babies lungs just in case she did come out sooner than expected then her lungs could handle it. I'm 30weeks. They kept me another night and monitored my baby every 4hrs. They also kept me another night to give me the second shot of steroids. My body was having a hard time fighting off the infection and somehow making my naval hurt supper bad!?

I couldn't believe that if I wouldn't have gone in as soon as I did my baby could have been born premature! Now I know that if I think something is going wrong always go in and get checked even if you're afraid of being laughed at and sent home.

So last week my baby was not active at all. I am convinced she was having a growth spurt or something? But yesterday she was so active. It's like she was awake all day kicking and punching and moving around. That night (last night) I suddenly got a painful pinching type cramp on the left side of my stomach. My stomach got really hard like it was tensing up? It shot that pinching pain all the way to my belly button. I figured it was contractions although I've only once had a contraction from Braxton hics. And it was nothing like that? It was a continuing sharp pain. Plus it didn't help bc my baby was going wild inside of me when this happened. So I decided to try and sleep it off. I slept on my right side all night bc my left side was hurting all night. When I woke up this morning the pain wasn't as bad. But when I slightly pressed on my belly button near my left side it still has that pinching feeling. I was hoping it would have gone away by now but it still hasnt? Baby isn't as active as yesterday. I can feel her move and kick every few hours. I habe an appointment in a week so I didn't want to stress myself out and go into the ER. Maybe she's just growing and it's causing that pain? Has anyone else experienced this? Please comment and leave advice!! 🙁
