Braxton Hicks?
I will be 38 weeks tomorrow and am still unsure if I've had any Braxton hicks contractions. I went into the hospital at 32 weeks because my doctor had suspicions that I was contracting and didn't know it, and she was right. I was apparently contracting frequently and couldn't feel a thing. I got a shot to stop them and have been on bedrest ever since. 😜
But today I've noticed that when I touch my stomach it's feeling super stiff or tight. I don't notice anything happening or it going away and my sides still feel kinda squishy. I'm just not sure if it's the baby shoved up against the front of my body or if it's something else.
Can anyone try and describe it to me?? lol I know it's different for everyone but I'm terrified I'm going to miss something and be thrown into active labor like my mom!! (She never felt them either! I was born an hour and a half after her first real contraction 😅)
