It looks like my night stand has gotten wet and I didn't notice it. When I was cleaning I noticed that the wood is starting to form a bubble right by an edge. Is there anyway of stopping this from getting worse.

Stains on Furniture
For water rings left by cups or glasses, rub with an abrasive. MILD abrasive: moisten cigarette or cigar ashes with a little cooking oil and apply with your finger. MED abrasive: table salt moistened, or silver polish.
Take a little mayonaise on you finger and dab it right on the water stain, let it sit for approximately five to ten minutes, or more, remove with a clean cloth. Water stain should be gone. Another tip that I've heard and have tried only once, is to take the ashes from those ugly cigaretts from the ash tray and apply to the water stain. This works too, but I prefer the mayo

Maybe your home is too humid, you could try getting a dehumidifier. obviously you should use coasters if you are setting drinks on the table

sounds like you have a veneer table, and a problem with the adhesive. If possible, use wood glue and weights to repair it.

I would suggest the dehumidifier, also. And if it continues to get worse, then you could strip it and re-finish it.

Didn't your mother warn you that good girls don't have "wooden night stands?"
