I had the same thing happen when I was 25wks. Ended up going to L & B. They told me I had a serve bladder infection that was causing bladder spasms. (Hurt so bad, thought I was having contractions) They gave me meds and within a few days I was fine.

A definite call first to talk to a doctor or midwife about your symtpoms. They should let you know whether to go in or not. I felt the same symptoms just last week and i called my midwife at Labor & Delivery. For me, the midwife said my baby was putting pressure on my sciatic nerve and she stayed on the phone with me instructing me what to  do until i felt comfortable. Listen to your body to make the best decision. If the pain is unbearable then going in may be best. However if its just uncomfortable a quick call to your doctor should help a lot
