Hi and thanks for asking to HCM

Occasional abdominal discomfort is a common pregnancy complaint, and while it may be harmless, it can also be a sign of a serious problem.
If you have abdominal pain or cramping along with spotting, bleeding, fever, chills, vaginal discharge, faintness, discomfort while urinating, or nausea and vomiting, or if the pain doesn't subside after several minutes of rest, then its high time you consult your doctor.

Some causes of abdominal pain in pregnancy are
Urinary tract infection
placental abruption
ectopic pregnancy
pre term labor
pre eclampsia

In your case urinary tract infection might be the cause, because other causes your doctor would have ruled out by now (7 months of your pregnancy)

I suggest its better if you consult your doctor for this as you are having severe pain and a examination is necessary.

Regards
Dr Santosh
