Call OB: When in doubt, particularly about the nature or origin of discomfort at your stage of pregnancy, please call your Obstetrician--that's one of the reasons they're there for you.

Call & discuss w/ob: Could be significant; depends on your specific history and situation; only your Ob is going to have that perspective.
