Have any of you experienced that when you get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom that your belly is rock hard? I would think that it may be B&H, but it's everytime i get up to pee at night. Just weird that it happens so frequently. My other thought is maybe i'm sleeping too much on my belly that it is tightening. It doesn't hurt, just has me curious. I have my 32 week appt 1 week from today so i'll ask my OB then, but wondering if this is common.

Re: Have you experienced this?
Yep! It happens to me to. When I wake up for the bathroom or just sitting or standing for long periods of time.
No, i'm not sleeping on my belly. I've always been a side sleeper and still am, so it's just the side of my belly that i'm laying on..not the whole belly. My bladder must be tiny if thats whats triggering the contraction. When i get up i'm not peeing much, but have a strong urge that i have to go. I've always been a frequent bathroom user in the night. Just different to wake up witha rock hard belly
This. It is a BH contraction from having a full bladder very normal. Sometimes these last a few minutes too.
