25 weeks pregnant and the baby pushes himself outward?

Last night hubby and I were laying on the couch. All of a sudden one side of my uterus got really, really hard. It litterally felt like I was palming the babies head in my hand. The right side of my belly felt normal but it felt like he had curled himself up over there and was pushing himself outward. Is this normal? Were we feeling him, or just my uterus getting hard?

    That's just your little babe stretching in there. He's growing and starting to get a little cramped, so what you probably felt was maybe his head or feet (or possibly one of the other many rounded parts of his little body) stretching out.

    Enjoy it! Good luck and Congrats!

    Yep, totally normal. As the baby gets bigger, there is less room. He is just stretching out. I get what feels like an elbow or a foot poking out of my side all the time, and I can look down and see it pushing out! It always makes me smile.
