im not sure what it is but my belly gets hard when i walk and it seems to be the only time when it gets hard. no pain or anything but its making me worried.

It could be the way the baby is positioned in your belly when you walk. If your not feeling any pain or having any leaks I wouldn't worry. But if you want, you can always talk to your doctor about it to get a professional opinion.

Good advice. I'm on my 3rd pregnancy. With this pregnancy and my 2nd pregnancy I started having Braxton Hicks contractions at 4 mos (around 20 weeks). I went into labor at 35 weeks with the 2nd pregnancy. I am now on bedrest with this pregnancy.

braxton hicks could most likely result into miscarrage??

[corkykort1393]

actually it is quite normal. women can start getting them as early as their first trimester!
