Probably okay: Unlikely to be anything serious, but would keep a close eye on things and if it gets worse, go see your doctor.

Probably not: Sometimes the pelvic pain you are feeling can be contractions. They can feel a variety of different ways. Sometimes like sharp vaginal pains, sometimes like menstrual cramps. As long as your baby is moving actively and you don't have any other issues (bright red or heavy vaginal bleeding, elevated blood pressure, etc), it is probably not anything wrong. It could be pubic symphysitis or other.
