Is 30 weeks too early for Braxton hicks??

Question

Help! I need advice. I'm 30 weeks and I feel period like cramps, lower back pain, tight belly and nauseousness all at once. It's in and off so I don't think it's regular contractions... This is my second pregnancy but with my first I was induced so I never experienced this. I also have a watery discharge. Could I be close to labor??

Answer

I'm pregnant with my 4th baby and my Braxton hicks started at 14 weeks lol. So no 30 weeks is not too early.

Answer

Definitely not.  I've been having them since around 25 weeks.  They have slowly gotten worse tho at almost 34 weeks now.  My doctor said to try and drink more water and that will help.

Answer

Nope, doesn't sound like pending labor to me at all. It all sounds 100% normal. I've got all the same symptoms (30+2) and have had them for several weeks. I also had them with our 1st and she was born at 40+1.

Answer

I have had these for about 3 weeks now, my doctor was very concerned so he put me on bed rest until I can make it to 36 weeks.

Answer

Answer

I'm also 30 weeks and have Braxton Hicks and watery discharge also.My OB wasn't concerned when I told her I was having them so I guess we're ok😁

Answer

I am 33.5 & have had them for a few weeks now, prob started around 30 wks...my dr said they were normal, not everyone is the same so call your dr up especially if you are concerned so they can put your mind at ease but like I said everyone is different, only your dr knows what's normal for you

Answer

This is my second pregnancy and with both I started having Braxton hicks from around 16 weeks. I don't go a day without having multiple. No rhyme or reason. And only extremely uncomfortable now because there is no room in there! Almost 34 weeks

Answer

Braxton hicks started with my first around 16 weeks. With this pregnancy even earlier. 
If they don't have a rhythm and they're not getting more painful, they're probably just BH. 
For me, mine are very distinct from labor contractions. BH don't hurt at all. Just very tight and leave me breathless. Labor contractions are a definitely "cramping" feel. 
Drink some water, and lay down on your left side. That always helps me when they get more intense.

Answer

3rd pregnancy and they started around 19-20w for me!
