Contractions : Periodic contractions can be normal. Your abdomen might feel hard for a minute or two and then soften. If you have pain or persistent contractions, you should let your doctor know.

Yes: This is likely a braxton-hicks contraction. It could also be a sign of early labor if it repeats on a regular basis.
