Do BH contractions show up on monitors?

Question

Had to go to L&D today to check if my water was leaking 28+2. Water wasn't leaking but nurse came and told me I had contractions for 15 minutes. Just curious if they were real or BH. Thanks

Answer

Yes they do . I had them bad with my last baby and we went to l&d and they were coming up but it was just false labor  .. Braxton hicks are wayyyyyyyyyy different feeling then the real contractions omg lol

Answer

Good question. I hope you're doing ok now.

Answer

I just googled something about Braxton hicks (I've been getting them with a full bladder and wanted to check how common it was) and read where someone else had been hooked up to a monitor, can't remember the reason, and had a Braxton hicks contraction register.
