How often do you get Braxton Hicks contractions?

Question

Answer

I am 33 weeks with baby #3 and I have never had a single Braxton Hicks contraction with any pregnancy. Am I the only one??

Answer

Haven't had one but was wondering same thing!

Answer

I’ve had two or three since I got up this morning. It’s 9 am and I’ve been up since 6. I usually have around 7-10 a day. Sometimes it’s more bothersome than others but it’s usually just a tightening for around 30 seconds then it’s gone. Been happening for a couple weeks now. Making me super nervous because I haven’t had them with other pregnancies. But also kind of hopeful that my body will actually be able to do its own thing this time instead of using pitocin. 😒

Answer

I used to get them quite often. It's more of a tightening feeling in the lower part of my uterus, probably because I wasn't drinking enough water. Now that I bought a new hydroflask with a straw, which has motivated me to drink more water for some odd reason, lol, I am more hydrated and get them less often.
