Braxton hicks?

So I was just reading a blog about braxton hicks, I never really knew what they were. For the past few weeks my stomach will tighten a little in different spots and it bulges out and feels hard in the spot that is bulged. I always thought it was my baby but apparently it could be Braxton hicks. What do you guys think?

If its bulged out then it could be the baby. When I get braxton hicks my entire stomach tightens and is hard until it stops like a regular contraction and then it relaxes after 30 seconds or so
