When do Braxton hicks contractions start?

Question

I'm 23 w + 3 and I still don't think I've experienced them? But I keep seeing it on my Glow chart as well as the daily info and all. I'm sure I'll know when I'm having them right? And is it okay I haven't had them yet? I know I'm probably worrying for nothing but I really want to know. When do they normally start happening in pregnancy?

Answer

I'm 32 weeks and I don't know if I have had them or not. Some people never get them

Answer

It depends what # pregnancy this is. You start having them around 6 weeks but a lot first time moms don't feel them until the 3rd trimester( if at all). You start feeling them earlier the more pregnancies you have. I have had some pretty uncomfortable ones and I'm only 15 weeks( 5th pregnancy)

Answer

I just started getting them a few days ago. I'm 27 weeks 2 days.

Answer

It varies pregnacy to pregnacy. Some women don't experience them at all. There really isn't a set amount of weeks when you will start experiencing them as you may not get any at all. Some people it feels like slight cramping and for other it feels like in labor contractions and very painful.

Answer

Don't worry that you haven't had them yet, I'm 37 weeks and still haven't had any. Some woman never do have them! No worries!
