Why was my stomach tight almost all day? 22 weeks...

Woke up and got sick, had a gag reflex thing. Nauseous but killed that with milk, throughout the day at work tiny would feel tight off and on all day... Not really any pain just slightly uncomfortable. Drank sprite and water, still able to eat and baby still moving around a ton... Anyone else experience this, didn't have braxton Hicks with my first so don't know what those are like but from what I read they're more like cramps which I didn't have. Input?

Could be your uterus expanding or Braxton Hicks. I got them and they never hurt!!! I was told by my doctor when I was pregnant with my first, that Braxton Hicks didn't hurt but can be uncomfortable. Was also told that if they did hurt, to at least call or time them defending I where I was in my pregnancy. If it comes with pain and you're nowhere near due date, call because they could be real contractions. If there isn't pain, it's probably just another fun pregnancy thing.
