27 weeks now and sometimes my belly goes hard and tight for a few seconds then relaxes. It doesnt really pain but it makes me a little nervous honestly. Is this a normal thing or should I mention to my gynac?
Mild irregular tightening can be normal, but I had preterm scare so I am cautious. If they become regular, painful, or u feel pressure down low, please dont wait, ring ur doctor. Better to be checked than sorry.
Beta these little tightenings are usually ur body practicing, quite normal. Sit down, sip some water and they often settle. Just keep an eye that they are not coming in a steady pattern, then inform ur doctor.
I felt this tightening for the first time recently and got a little scared. Did others feel like the belly goes hard for a few seconds. My gynac said practice contractions are normal but to watch if they become regular.
Occasional tightening, the Braxton Hicks kind, is normal especially later on. They come and go and ease when u rest or change position. But if they get regular, painful or close together before due time, call ur gynac.
