Cramping?

Question

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but since yesterday I have been cramping pretty regularly where bellow my belly button tightens up but not my whole belly. Is that just normal cramping or should I be timing them? It honestly just feels like the first day of my period. And little man is moving up a storm! 
Thanks ladies! 
Also, I’m 35w5d if that’s useful information.

Answer

Time them. I did and turns out they were early contractions caused by dehydration for me. I was rehydrated and I'm still pregnant 2 weeks later, but they were real.

Answer

what she said. more then likely it's because your dehydrated and your uterus is not happy about it. drink plenty of fluids skip water if your sick of it just get hydrated and they should stop. if they don't then think about going into l&d; if they get worse.

Answer

I agree with getting hydrated. I had a long, hot weekend and started cramping yesterday afternoon plus baby was a very active. I had to drink maybe 60 oz of water before I they weakened. I didn't realize I was dehydrated until then.
