Stomach feels like constant contractions

[mumtoone12]

Hey ladies I'm 21 weeks and recently I've noticed if I've been busy etc when I lay down my stomach has contracted into a large ball like shape and is rock solid it isn't sore can be a bit uncomfortable at times but my sore and t stays that way for ages last night it was like that for an hour and nothing helped it ease off does anyone know if this is normal or I should be worried??

Sounds like Braxton Hicks. Lasting a bit longer than normal though. It can be brought on by exertion and also by dehydration so make sure you are well hydrated. Worth mentioning at your next midwife appointment or sooner if you are finding it troubling.

Definitely sounds like you could be dehydrated; I would lie down and rest whilst drinking some water and see how you feel in an hour. If you continue to be worried I would call your hospital.
