Contractions or Braxton Hicks?

Question

So quick question can Braxton Hicks contractions feel like the real thing? My stomach doesn't get hard it's been on and   since since 9 this morning is now 12:32 where I'm at and when it happens the baby moves around a lot I'd probably rate the pain a 4 or 5ish out of 10

Answer

I'd say if they are painful and consistent they are probably real contractions. Have you tried timing them? Maybe call your doctor and see what they suggest. They might want it to get checked. Braxton hicks are usually random and don't have a pattern to them and for the most part shouldn't be painful just more so uncomfortable.

Answer

How many weeks are you? Braxton hicks are random. Mostly when you stand up from sitting, changing positions or lifting. They are uncomfortable and make your tummy feel hard. They shouldn't be painful or any kind of pattern to them
