Tightness in belly?!?

I have had some tightness in my belly for a couple of days now, nothing painful just uncomfortable. Kinda like I have eaten too much and my tummy is ready to explode lol. I have had BH in the past but it felt so much different than this and went away pretty quick. I'm not sure what to do? I don't think it's labor pains because it doesn't hurt just annoying and uncomfortable? Any ideas?

Re: Tightness in belly?!?

  • I feel the same way.  Chalk it up to your stomach continuing to stretch and make room for your growing baby.  I try to eat smaller amounts and it definitely helps to lay down and stretch out every once in awhile.

  • I think it's just your belly stretching. Mine feels tight and uncomfortable all the time. When I have BH it feels like a rock for a minute or so then just goes back to feeling big and uncomfortable. I also feel like my stomach is pushing into my lungs. Blah.

  • Thanks! I'm pretty sure it's just her growing but I have never felt this with any other pregnancy before so I was kinda taken off guard!

  • Maybe TMI, but I feel that way when I'm constipated for a few days. Could that be part of the problem?

  • I feel like this by bedtime each night. It's like I can feel my stomach trying to make more room for her . I almost always feel better by morning though.
