The pain isn't unbearable just uncomfortable

Ok so they're definitely nit contractions. It could be round ligament pain or baby's foot up there. You also have your gallbladder, liver and pancreas on that side that can cause pain that high. How bad is the pain? If its unbearable or getting worse I would give your dr a call. Good luck!

I had this same problem and actually went to the hospital for it last night. Turns out I'm having issues with my gallbladder.  But it could also be braxton hicks. I'm 30 weeks and 1 day today. I'd call your Dr and see what he/she thinks it is. You never know what it could be whenever it comes to your baby and pregnancy, better safe than sorry!
