    Braxton Hicks, and yes, sounds like it.

    Sounds like it. 

    Mine usually make my stomach very hard to the touch.  Then it releases after a few seconds and everything goes back to normal.

    Are you hydrated? My OB mentioned that dehydration can increase them.  (just mentioning since you said you've been feeling them often today)
