How many weeks are you? Maybe call your GP?

Is this your first? I remember that my braxton hicks became more painful further on in the pregnancy. Otherwise have you strained anything or bumped yourself at all? Has your bump relaxed now or still rock hard?

Hope you're ok

I've had a particularly difficult day at work today, and when I left at 3pm my bump was rock solid. Have de-stressed a little now and it's all relaxed again.
