Hey! This just started happening to me randomly a few nights ago - I'm pretty sure it's Braxton Hicks. It's an overall tightening of my abdomen. Not painful, just weird. 30 weeks on Monday.

Yes!! It's Braxton Hicks.... I'm 28 weeks tomorrow and I've been having them since 20 weeks. Just gets rock hard. Don't freak cause they can fluctuate based on stress, straining yourself, and dehydration. I have one every time I pee now. I have them throughout the entire day. It doesn't hurt, but if my bladder is full it can be uncomfortable. Just drink a lot of water!! My doc says it's only an issue of it becomes painful. Hope that helps!

Does it only happen for a few seconds at a time? That's kind of what Braxton hicks feel like to me. And almost like I'm flexing and my tummy is getting tight.
