Hi,
maybe baby is in a weird spot. These little guys seem to rule our lives for a while don't they?
Maybe you should ask your doc. Be on the safe side.

I don't think you need to ask your doc. I went through that sometimes in the last trimester. It's perfectly normal.

Hey jess,
it is very normal what happens is now that the baby has become alot bigger than before and you are close to being due. Your stomach gets hard because it is contracting. Whenever you have sex it stimulates the cervix which is normal and natural and it will cause you to have braxton hicks. If you are uncomfortable tey a different position.. Etc. On your side and etc. Good luck hun

I agree with tazzy it is sometimes normal I experienced that alot with my first son in my 2nd preganancy. And I stayed in the hospital because he wanted to come early but just change your posotion and if that doesn't work then ask your doc. Good luck
