    not sure but it freaked me out when it happened. I thought it was bh but might be a bit early for that?
    Mine would suddenly go rock hard it was weird, but nothing was wrong and mw said it was normal

    I dont know exactly why it happens but i have noticed with this pregnancy and my DS that my tummy would be harder and bigger at night. I think its pretty common.

    I;m pretty sure you have BH from very early in pg but you just can't feel them. With this pg I was feeling my BH at about 15ish weeks. My tum is usually bigger at night too. Might have something to do with having a belly full of food/water from the day, and just gravity doing it's thing...??

    I asked my OB about the BH because I was told I was having one during my NT scan (couldn't feel it). The OB said they start somewhere around 10wks, it's just that you don't feel them until later. I started noticing the firm belly early in the 2nd tri. I ususally noticed it when I'd just gotten into bed. It seems to have changed it's routine now though, because I've noticed it at other times recently and instead of when I'm in bed...

    I have a really hard, round tummy at night too. I love it, it's the only time I actually "feel" pregnant, LOL.
