It could be the baby stretching. Mine does that..feels like the movie aliens. :) Braxton Hicks is contractions that are not regular Labor contractions. They go away if you change your movement. Or are irregular time intervals.

You could be contracting... its might not be Labor Cotractions.. everyones body contracts, even when your not pregnant. After an orgasim, or passing a stool your stomach contracts.

You can look up on the Net labor contractions, and they have the signs to look for if you want further info. And if you feel uncomfortable, you can always call your nurse.
