Thank you for the answer. I feel my tummy like a rock for a minute several times a day.

Braxton Hicks I think can last through your entire pregnancy unfortunately. The difference between contractions and Braxton Hicks are the consistency and pain. Braxton Hicks are inconsistent and generally cause more discomfort than pain. Whereas contractions you can time and are very painful.
