Sometimes my pet feels really hard and tight for a few seconds then goes back to normal. Im around 5 months and not sure when this tightness usually starts. Is this the normal thing everyone talks about?
I know how terrifying it feels when your stomach suddenly hardens. While mild tightening (Braxton Hicks) is normal in the second and third trimester, please contact your doctor immediately if it's painful or if you see any spotting, just to be safe.
Haha, sometimes it feels like a football is inflating inside your belly, right? It's totally normal in the later months, especially after a heavy meal or a long walk. Just take it as your baby saying 'space is getting tight in here mom!'
It usually starts happening around the second trimester as your uterus stretches. It is very normal, but just rest and drink some water when it happens.
Hey, don't stress too much! That tight feeling is mostly Braxton Hicks, which is just your uterus practicing for delivery. Sit back, put your feet up, and sip some coconut water – it usually passes in a few minutes.
When this happened to me, my mother told me it's just the baby growing and stretching. She would make me lie down on my side and drink warm water, which really helped. But if the tightness doesn't go away with rest, let your gynac know.
