Hardening belly, but no pain/contractions...
Braxton hicks? I've had this off and on all morning but it hasn't gotten more frequent and I haven't felt any pain.
Plus I'm on indomethacin. Anyone take that and if so do you still get Braxton hicks? Figured i would ask on here- if I notice any change will call my OB. Tia!

I think it's BH because I have been having the same thing...mostly on the right side and it tenses up and then releases. Sometimes it's above my belly button and sometimes below.

Definitely sounds like BH. I'm having twins too, and they started at around 18w... I'm now 30w and I get them more frequently now.

I'm on that too (daily) and indomethacin (weekends only)... I haven't noticed it in a while now- so I'm guessing that's what it was! Thanks everyone!
