V I've been getting some similar stuff to you.

My belly goes hard all the time!! but I can feel bits and pieces like feet.
Would you describe that tender feeling as also feeling really heavy?? I get a really heavy feeling when I've been walking for too long. Just doing the groceries the other day I got the heavy feeling and a really uncomfortable lower back.

I also get some tightenings in my lower abdomen, but they are just annoying more than anything, I would suspect they might be BH's,

One thing I do get however is the pain in the tops of my thighs. Sometimes it's just a tingling and sometimes you have an evil child that pushes on the sciatic nerve. I have the latter, and it sops me in my track. Nathan can be in the next room, and ask me what's wrong, 'cause I let out some noises and start swearing.

ON the whole, I don't think this bubs is actually going to come out sooner than the due date. I think we have at least the 12 days my ticker says
