Hi Ladies (& Alan)!
Time for my fortnightly pregnancy symptom quiz.
This time it relates to the hardness of my stomach.
According to my ob, I have been experiencing braxton hicks for a while. As far as i can tell they are not regular.
In the last week or so my stomach has been very hard almost all day every day, its not so bad in the morning but worse in the afternoon.
It is not so much painful as really uncomfortable. Everything sits quite high and I feel as though i cannot sit up pr stand up straight enough to get relief.
Bubs is generally kicking or punching downwards although i have felt alot more movement in there in the last week or so (as in he is doing little somersaults!)
Is this just a kind of extended braxton hicks, or normal pressure which will continue on during the pregnancy?
Thanks in advance
Belinda.
