Frequent worrier means frequent poster.. a couple of times past week my stomach has got hard and rounded and I get a feeling while this happens not painful or uncomfortable really just being able to feel movement. for some reason it's quite cringe to touch🤔 It happened earlier around 12 then at 6 and then another about an hour ago. Happened again ten minutes ago now got the feeling it's happening again my belly isn't as hard though, I googled which I probably shouldn't and said if more then two "contractions"in an hour to ring the doctors? Shall I? I would also be ringing maternity assessment as docs not open. Worried as I read can be going in to preterm labour and needs to be stopped if it is this?

If you're worried ring the Maternity assessment unit. They may be able to reassure you over the phone.

Yeah as PP said, give them a ring for reassurance. Sometimes frequent BH can just be a sign of something else irritating your uterus though like lots of baby movements, certain positions you put your body in, UTI or thrush. I wouldn't worry too much. GL x
