Braxton hicks? FTM

Courtney🐧 • Mommy of one perfect little girl 💜

I've started to get Braxton hicks contractions every time I stand up, wake up and get out of bed or have to pee! I'm 36 weeks as of today; is that normal? Does this mean labor is close or should I not worry? I've been sure to keep hydrated, because I know dehydration can cause it! They're uncomfortable and it kind of scares me because sometimes there's a slight pain/more pressure than usual.

I'm just hoping she stays in there for at least a week and a half longer just to be safe, especially because I've been having this weird feeling she's coming soon! 😭 I've also dropped like crazy!
