28 weeks, BH??

Question

28 weeks and I think I'm experiencing Braxton hicks?? My stomach keeps tightening up every few minutes then it goes away. My stomach is very hard and almost looks lopsided 😩
Anyone else having this problem??

Answer

It’s Braxton Hicks and it’s completely normal.

Answer

I would try drinking a big glass of water and laying down on your left side. More often than not, Braxton Hicks are just practice contractions. I think if you’re consistently having 5-6 an hour over multiple hours that you should call your ob and get their opinion. I had no painful contractions until my water broke with my daughter... just lots and lots of contractions. I wish I had paid more attention to them and gone in to the hospital earlier than i did.

Answer

I have noticed if I don’t drink enough water I’ll have BH more frequently. Usually stops soon after hydrating myself..

Answer

Sounds like BH but you should not be experiencing them every few minutes...
