I am having the same problem... for about a week now. I have a dr appointment on Wednesday but im thinking its to long to wait. Ive been super uncomfortable but my little boy moves still so i dont think anything is wrong i was just thinking it was bh but it does hurt when i stand or cough so i might have my hubby take me in after he gets home tonight

I just don't know why my stomach tightened up like 2 days ago and won't untighten. And its so uncomfortable

Hmm I doubt its labor,  by now the contractions would be so painful you would just know. But if youre still unsure you can always go to the er!

And sometimes in my pelvic area and lower back

It doesn't really go away. Its like a constant tightness and its been this way since I felt a popping sensation in my vagina 2 days ago

If theres no pain involved and I they go away by walking or changing position then most likely braxton hicks
