Your baby is settling into birthing position... probably the reason your tummy has a weird shape... also, your uterus has been previously stretched so the elasticity in it isn't as tight as the first time around... it's like a balloon.. the first time you blow it up it's tough, but when you let the air out and blow it up again it's much stretchier.
If I were you I would walk and walk and walk... do some squats, laundry... anything to keep you moving and bending... you are probably in the early stages of labor and moving will keep your contractions coming.
Best of luck to you and your newest addition!
