Tingling at top of bump, like wearing a slendertone?!

Has anyone experienced it? It feels so strange! Lots of tingles, as though I have a slendertone belt on. My bump doesn't tighten, so I don't think it's Braxton hicks- just curious!

Hi,

I'm 29w and I haven't had any BH yet, so I can't speak from experience. But I was under the impression that any tightening, generally without pain is Braxton Hicks.

I would say ring your midwife for a chat if you're unsure

Kri5ty I get this too im 27+3 it sometimes feels tender at the top of my bump too, I asked the mw about it she said lots of people complain about it but she hasn't got a clue what it is! I did some googling and a few sites said it's nerves when everything is stretching x

Be careful - I had this and it was probably my stomach muscles starting to split. I didn't know at the time but when it started with DC2 I got a lot more careful about not straining those muscles and it wasn't as bad.

just feels so strange! Glad I'm not their only one!
