Upper Abd Pain. need your ideas please!

Hi, You ladies have helped me before and again I need you. I have  upper  left abd pain/tenderness.
about 5 finger withs up from my belly button and to the left side right off the edge of my ribs I have a tenderness when i lightly touch or push. It ranges form tenderness for really painfull when touched. It feel like its something under the stomach muscle, but today I was touching there and then tightened my stomach muscle and it felt like some thing rolled off the muscle towards the ribs and down between them which really hurt, but I am clueless on what it could be. Other wise I can be pushing on it  and feel the tenderness but when tightening my muscles I can no longer feel it.  I did have a baby 6 months a go if that matters. But any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you!
