Hi Megan. When dough shrinks up that's a sign that the gluten is very tight and the dough simply needs to relax. If it's ever happening, cover the dough with plastic wrap or a damp towel and check back in 20 minutes. The gluten should have relaxed by that point and the dough will be much more cooperative.
