Weird dull cramping on left-what do we think?
Since I woke up this morning I've had a weird dull cramp (more like an ache) on my lower left side...
It's not painful-on a scale of 1-10 its like a 2...
I'm officially 37 weeks tomorrow...do we think this is an early contraction? Or maybe his hand/elbow is on something?
It's now been a few hours and it's still there
The baby is moving (nothing crazy though)
Do I call the emergency line for my OB's office?
Do I wait until maybe 3?

could be your LO resting up against your pelvis...i get that every once in awhile. have you tried switching positions and laying down on your right side? either way, if it doesn't go away by 3, totally call your dr--better safe than sorry!

That's what I think...but I took a nap on my right side for an hour, an it was temporarily better...and now the dull pain is back.

I've actually experienced that a bit too. A very dull cramping feeling that is far from painful, but it only lasts a couple seconds. I'm 35 wks right now and from what I read online it sounds like it might just be a version of the Braxton Hicks. Who knows. I think it's ok as long as it's not painful.

Sometimes one of girls are clearly laying on a nerve or something and it causes a cramp like feeling.
Usually if I massage my belly I can get them to move and feel almost instant relief.
