The last couple of evenings I've noticed my stomach was really hard and pretty uncomfortable. Then last night, it was even more uncomfortable, to the point that I'd have to sort of stop walking and hunch over for a second, but never like a rhythmic tightening and loosening or anything, the way I imagined Braxton Hicks are. I slept terribly last night with just an icky feeling in my stomach. I'm 27 weeks now.

None of it was terrible, just uncomfortable, so I'm just assuming this is one of those less pleasant parts of pregnancy, but did anyone else experience this? I haven't been extra active the last few days-- regular walking around and stuff. Bending over to unload the dishwasher was particularly bad though.

Maybe I'm just complaining, but if other people had similar experiences and it's normal, I'll feel better On the plus side, baby's been extra active, so at least I know the kid is fine in there!
