    BH's on top of belly?

    Hi girls,

    I've been getting some pretty strong BH's over the last few days, the usual tightenings but they were all over my belly. For a while now when i get them only the top of my belly, around the fundus, seems to be getting rock hard, under my belly and right at the sides feels softer. Is it a real BH? I'm not having any pain, just the squeezy sensation? or could it be bubs just pressing really hard up high, i thought it might be but they're pretty regular and don't feel like bub's usual squirmings.

    Any thoughts?

    A BH or contraction feels like bad period pain. To me it sounds like it's the baby that you're feeling. Towards the end of pregnancy the babies movements feel more like pushing or stretching than 'kicking'.

    when i have the BH the sides go tight everything goes tight and i can see it tighten up as well- i agree its hard to know whats what it in there isnt it.

    But yeah like Tinks said, as u get further along iv noticed bubs pushes on everything and makes things feel very tight , they push against u,they have less move so i dont feel as many kicks bust pushes things like that
