[|Human|] Hi, I m two days away from being 10 weeks pregnant and the past few nights I have been feeling a tightening sensation in my stomach and it feels like my muscles are twitching and this is my second pregnancy. I was just wondering if maybe this is little movements of the baby, some people have said they experience this and was told it is the baby. It only happes when I m laying flat and really still, I have tried moving positions but it still happens.
[|AI|]  Hello, I have gone through your query and understood the concern. Since this is your second pregnancy, if you had a normal vaginal delivery in your last issue, you will be well aware of uterine contractions. The twitching sensations you are experiencing right now are more likely to be early Braxton-Hicks movements. Fetal movements can be appreciated in later pregnancies as early as 12 weeks onward. Abdominal muscle cramps are another possibility, owing to electrolyte and mineral imbalances. A clinical evaluation and a follow-up sonogram helps solve the confusion. Please take adequate bed rest and avoid stress. Take care.
