Could that have been a baby movement?

I am almost 22 weeks, but not sure if I am feeling the baby movements. I am on a plus size, so I was told it can take longer for me to feel them, and will contact midwife anyways (20 week scan was all fine).

Yesterday twice I felt something which was like hardening of my lower abdomen- like a muscle contraction- my partner could feel it too, it felt really hard for 20 or so seconds, maybe longer, and then relaxed. Could that be provoked by baby movement? I felt it twice in the past, but not as strong.

Sounds more like Braxton Hicks.

Baby movement is more of a flick or a flutter. Or literally poking from the inside and it's very quick. Sounds like braxton hicks x
