Answer

Answer

Yes so bad to the point I can’t walk and gotta take a break

Answer

Sometimes! I’ve had pretty painful Braxton Hicks since the middle of my second trimester though. Not all of them hurt, but some get so bad I could cry. Other times, they’re just super uncomfortable. So strange, but all is well with baby and I so I know it’s nothing bad.

Answer

I was describing my Braxton hicks to my midwife (tightening of the stomach and really bad period like cramps) she said they weren’t Braxton hicks but real contractions. Nothing regular yet but hoping she will come sooner rather then later. I’m almost 35 weeks.

Answer

My OB considers any contractions that aren’t consistent BH. His thought is that contractions mean you’re in labor. But you aren’t in labor if  they are not consistent, and moving your closer to pushing. So I know I’ve been having tons of contractions the last few days, every 3-6 minutes, but they vary in time apart, so I don’t go in. I’m hoping when I see my high risk OB on Monday that I’m at least a little dilated!

Answer

Yeah, I have some that are painless but many that are far from painless. Super crampy and uncomfortable. As this is my second, and I'm 35 weeks, I think those are real contractions, like someone else commented on here. Gives me hope that I won't go late this time!
