tightness in stomach
I am currently 38 almost 39 weeks pregnant. I have noticed my stomach will get extremely hard at times. Not necessarily with pain, but a lot of discomfort. People will say wow your stomach is really tight.. but then 10 mims later there like hmmm..your soft again.. is this normal? They have me wondering. Again just uncomfortable, not really pain.. the only pain I have experienced is in my who-ha, when it feels like someone is stretching me from side to side... anyone have any thoughts?
Exactly description of Braxton Hicks contractions :) Early labour often feels similar to this too but will get more consistent and intense.
