This isn’t my first pregnancy so I feel embarrassed asking this, but how do I know the difference between Braxton hicks and my baby just stretching out?

For me, baby stretching I usually feel in one specific spot, like I can put my hand on it and feel baby pushing. Sometimes two spots on either side if baby is doing a full body stretch lol. Whereas Braxton hicks is my entire lower half of my belly that gets rock hard and super heavy.

Thanks for asking and answering this! I have the same question!
