Does this sound like braxton hicks?

This is my second pregnancy so I should probably know this...but I’ve was never aware of braxton hicks during my first pregnancy. I’m 24 weeks and all afternoon and evening I’ve had tightenings on my stomach and my stomach feels so hard and uncomfortable like I’ve been pumped full of air. I can also feel the baby moving loads tonight so I don’t know if it’s maybe in a funny position that’s making me uncomfortable..just feel a bit paranoid.

I had a bath which made my stomach go soft again but now it’s back..doesn’t seem to be a pattern to it, it’s pretty much constant. Don’t know whether I should speak to a midwife I just don’t remember this from last time.

Yep, that's BH. Feels sort of like your bump has been shrink wrapped.

But call triage if you're concerned.
