Bad cramping on left side..?

Question

I'm having prolonged abdominal cramping on my left side. I was in L&D 2 nights ago having mild contractions and what they think might be round ligament pain. But this pain is constant, not shooting or brief like round ligament pain should be. I was in the car going to work and had to turn around... I've been lying down for an hour and it's still hurting, although heating pad is helping a bit (it's on very low). They said to only go back to hospital if I was in severe pain, which I'm not. Any ideas what I should do?

Answer 1

How far along are you?? Call your doctor and see if you can have tylenol.  Was your doctor aware that you were in L&D last night?  If not I would put a call in to him/her just to make sure they know what is going on.  Did you have an ultrasound?  TT

Answer 2

on the left side its probably just gas you would have to worry if it was on the right side... but yeah its most likely just gas dont worry calm down ur okay!

Answer 3

Call your doctor.

Answer 4

Call your Doctor, even if its nothing...you don't want to take a chance.  It'll put your mind at ease if nothing else...
