lower pain

I'm 20 weeks & all day I've had an off an on pain on my right lower abdomen. It last a couple minutes then goes away and shortly comes back. I called the Dr they said it was just dehydration but I'm pretty sure its not. Does anyone else know what it could be or have had the same problem?

Its Braxton hicks contractions.  Im 24 weeks and get them often but hes right it is from dehydration. When you get dehydrated it can cause you to start having them so drink lots of water.
