Same thing happens to me kassi. Its likely just braxton hicks. If it was contractions you wouldnt be able to walk through them trust me lol.

it's probably the physical activity that causes them. i had them while resting, but they got a lot worse when i was active physically, like shopping etc...

it could be but is more likely that its a braxton hicks contraction. they usually tighten just a portion of your belly. just make sure they are never regular. mine began at 19 weeks, but i had regular contractions that landed me in the hospital at 34 weeks.
