Weird stretching/tense feeling? - FTM

Question

I’ll be 28 weeks tomorrow and sometimes my stomach tightens, then kind of pokes out and feels uncomfortable. Mostly on one side. Sometimes both. It’s strange but I’m thinking it’s the baby poking his head or rump out? It goes away after a minute or 2, which I am thinking he moved or readjusted himself?
Or maybe this is Braxton Hicks? 
Sometimes the lump/bulge is clearly visible lol looks so funny. Doesn’t hurt just feels stretched/tight. 
FTM here so every day brings a new question. What do you ladies think? 😆

Answer

Sound like Braxton Hicks

Answer

Soy da like Braxton Hicks to me. If you feel a tightening instead of movement from inside, it’s BH. Happened to me my whole first 2 pregnancies. I had a cerclage so maybe that triggered mine :)

Answer

I’ve determined it’s baby lol it’s definitely not my whole belly tightening just one side that tightens and pokes out. I’ve started poking it back and he moves 😂😂 I’m sure he doesn’t like it but it makes us laugh!

Answer

I’ve been getting it for the past week and my doctor said it could be both. If it’s cramping then Braxton Hicks, if you physically see the baby moving it is just them getting comfy in there lol.

Answer

Sounds like baby!!!Braxton Hicks usually is just tightening around the tummy and maybe slight pain!! If you see a " bump" or movement that goes away it's mostly likely the baby!!

Answer
