is normal for the left side of my belly to always be a little harder than my right side???
my mother said that the reason for that is b/c thats where the head is at, is that true or should i worry a little???

If it moves when you touch it it is the baby's head. If it doesn't then it's the butt. (According to my chiropractor the baby will shy away when you touch their head. Your doctor should be able to feel if it's baby's head and let you know. You have lots of time for the baby to turn many times at 22 weeks.

thats completely normal. My left side of my belly was rock solid all last night and this morning and my right side is soft. I keep getting kicked in my right ribs, so that makes sense cos it must be lying diagonal in my belly. The further on you get and the less and less space baby has in your belly the more you'll notice. and you'll be able to tell where head and where arms and legs are:-)
