I am 23 weeks and it’s happening similarly for me as well. When you mention about tightening tummy, most people would think about contractions, but contractions only happen when you feel tight then relieve after 30-60 seconds. I went to hospital few weeks earlier because of this. But for me it’s about the gas being trapped in my stomach or constipation. As soon as I get sooth that, it’s fine. But my colleagues told me it’s normal to have a hard tummy from 06-07 months, especially for your first baby. But if you have Braxton Hicks, it’s recommended to see doctor if it happens more than 4 times within an hour.

often times, 12 am to 1 am nako nakakatulog sa sobrang likot ni baby at saka di din kc ako makahinga ng maayos kapag nakahiga kaya ganon. pati tuloy si daddy niya, napupuyat din.😅

1st time mum here. I feel the same way. I experience tightness of my tummy since 3rd month of my pregnancy and it became regular basis when I enter my second trimester. It always happened during after lunch and there were times I find it hard to breath. I was worried before but whenever we had UTZ my baby is okay. So I get used to this kind of feeling. I still do some cardio exercises or walking so long my body does cooperate. Relax mommies, I was worried and paranoid with that experience and my OB says it's part of pregnancy when I told her "madalas naninigas tiyan ko lalo na sa upper part.

It could be Braxton Hicks contractions or false labour. These are normal and very common. They typically last for around 30 to 60 seconds but can be as long as 2 minutes. Some things may trigger or worsen Braxton-Hicks contractions: - sex or orgasm - dehydration - a full bladder - sharp kicking by the baby Even though Braxton-Hicks contractions are common and harmless during pregnancy, it is important to mention them to the doctor at prenatal visits.

Thats normal. Its called BRAXTON HICKS CONTRACTION. Way yan ng body natin para iprepare tayo sa tunay na labor. Some women feel that earlier in the 2nd trimester, but some never experience that. In my case pag nagkakabraxton hicks ako, umiinom lang ako ng maraming tubig. Or pag nakahiga ako, tumatayo ako, pag nakatayo naman ako, humihiga ako. Minsan ang nagtitrigger kasi nyan is Full bladder, tiredness, and orgasm.

I think it's Braxton Hicks contractions too...it normally starts around this time... These are ‘practice’ contractions, and feel a bit like a band of muscle tightening across your belly. Some women don’t feel them at all. They tend to be stronger and more noticeable towards the end of pregnancy and can sometimes feel like mild labour contractions.
