wondering what it could be????

So at times there is a tight pressure around my belly button then it goes straight down to where it feels like a lot of pressure down there. No clue what it is. It goes on for a few minutes happening 4 or 5 time then nothing. Is he just moving a lot or what??? Will be 35 weeks on Monday first time mom

Will probably be him just lowering himself down ready

It could be Braxton hicks, they are supposed to be painless but some do cause pain. Mine feel like the muscle is tightening, and then just relaxes but it happens several times a hour.

Its braxton hicks for sure.. its painless tightening of the stomach but wen my bubs is around my belly button it hurts!
I think my belly button is gonna stick out soon :(

Honestly I thought every ones belly button stuck out while pregnant, come to find out that's not the case my belly button got deeper lol.

Mom of 3 here...when u say tightening around belly button, is when i immediately thing Braxton hicks contractions. Ur belly tightens up and releases sometimes causing pressure down below just like real contractions. Ur body is just preparing for the real thing so dont worry.

Thanks everyone. I was wondering if it could be that but no clue. I get it really only at night when I work. It kind of took me by surprise the first time it happened.
