Braxton Hicks?

Question

I know everyone's body is different so I'm just curious on how Braxton hicks get like for you? What were your signs of it?

Answer

For me it started around 25 weeks and just felt like my stomach would harden for 30 seconds and look more like a square. Started feeling it more and more throughout the weeks. Now I'm 36 weeks and it hardens and does stop me in my tracks sometimes as it's a little uncomfortable and probably getting closer to labor as my baby has dropped lol.

Answer

Mine started around 25 weeks. At first it was just a couple times every few days, but now I get so so so so so many at one time. Like painful ones exactly 2 mins apart that last for hours and hours. (Sometimes all night) I get that about 4-5 times a week. I've been in the ER for it, just because they were so frequent and so painful, but I have no signs of early labor..30 weeks now. Dilated 1 cm at 27 weeks. But everything is fine.

Answer

Mine started at 16 weeks and just like the others my entire abdomen where my huge uterus is would get hard. My heart starts racing and sometimes I get pressure in my head. A few times it hurt my lower right back, lower right abdomen and right leg. Nothing on the other side.

Answer

I get out of breath a little bit right before it happens and then my stomach gets hard. It doesn't necessarily hurt but it's pretty uncomfortable.

Answer

Started very early, around 17 weeks. Didn't realise what was happening until I did some research. My belly goes rock hard and kinda square, sometimes higher one side of my belly depending on how baby is positioned. Only happens for about 30 seconds but can be uncomfortable

Answer

i dont remember when mine started last time (my youngest is 18 yrs old) but i do remember mine never got painful... my stomach would just get super hard for up to  a minute and then it would relax
