How far along are you? It sounds like a braxton hicks contraction. (Painless contraction.. just your body's way of getting ready... nothing to worry about.) Are you 20-25 weeks or more? cause I think that's when they start normally. I would ask your doctor though just to be sure. I used to get them whenever I ate popcorn for some reason.. .haha.

When you orgasm it contracts your stomach.It makes it hard because the contractions are pushing the baby to your stomach.Something like Braxton hicks but not exactally the same thing.
