Does anyone know what this is?

So, for the past several weeks, I get this occasional pain..its like menstrual cramps except it doesn't come and go like cramps..its more consistent.Usually emptying my bladder helps make it go away.

Last night I got a pain strong enough to wake me up. It was only my right side, about where my ovary is I think.  It was a sharp consistent pain, so I don't think it was a contraction OR a RLP but am I wrong? Anyone know what this could be and if should be concerned?  It was gone when I woke up this morning.

that sounds like it could be RLP but it could also be contractions. does your stomach get hard when it happens? if so then probably contractions.

No, I don't think so? I don't think I have had any stomach tightening yet..only when the babies roll over and I get that distinctive "bulging" feeling.

I had though RLP also, but isn't that supposed to be fleeting as well?

you are still growing and stretching at a faster pace than a singleton so I am guessing no on the fleeting of the RLP. my solution for you is to just sit on the toilet all day and pee. lol.

Ha. What makes you think I'm not practically doing that already? LOL.

I was feeling the bulging feeling, I thought it was baby boy pushing against the top of my stomach really hard.  When I was in the hospital being monitored it happend and it turns out that it was actually a contraction.  The nurse said it is very common for pg woman to think it's the baby pushing against them and it is really a contraction.
