Sorry for the blunt title

for the past 20 mins have a strong cramp on one side similar to a stitch u get when running but also feels a bit like trapped wind. The pain is coming and going but in no pattern. Kind of hurts a bit more on an in breath

I liken a labour pain to a dragging sensation, not just in one place though. But to be honest my waters usually break first. Try a warm bath, good for pain, when you get out it may have either gone or be regular. Good luck.

Doesn't sound much like labour - that was always a symmetrical pain for me. But if it ends in a baby I'm wrong!
