This evening when I laid down on the couch I told my husband I felt a Braxton hick contraction. This is baby #4 and I usually start to feel them from time to time around this time.

However, when I sat up I felt a sharp pain and toms of pressure and I told my husband something was wrong. I stood up and the pressure made me feel like I needed to use the bathroom. It hurt to walk.

After 10 mins the pain got much better. Now it’s been about 30 minutes and I’ve been chugging water. I’m not hurting as bad but the feeling of pressure and like a constant Braxton hick contraction is still there.

Could it be dehydration or should I call my doctor?
