What Is The Cause For Frequent Braxton Hicks Contractions During 35 Weeks?
i'm 35 weeks pregnant and my belly has been getting super tight on and off all day. i've been having braxton hicks contractions for a couple weeks now, but never this often or lasting as long as these do. they aren't painful, just really uncomfortable and make it hard to breathe.

so better you meet a gynecologist to rule.As your are near your term.so fetal movements will be more this time.Tightening of stomach your are getting because of fetal movements only,abdomen will be in like contracted state but these all are normal phenomena,no need to worry much.be in regular consult with your doctor ,you may need to go to the hospital any time.good luck.
