Braxton Hicks!

Maddie • Married. Mommy to be. Expecting Zaxton Zane, Dec. 9th.
Am I the only one who has had Braxton Hicks contractions starting at 25 weeks? They arnt painful at all. Just very annoying, I have maybe like 2-3 a day, everyday for a week straight. Doctor said it was normal and will probably continue and get more frequent as I get bigger, but I'm wondering if any other mommas have them too this early? I'm 26 weeks and 2 days currently.

How do I know if I'm feeling Braxton hicks? I think I might be getting them but I'm not to sure.

If they go away with walking and don't get stronger then they are Braxton hicks

I've been feeling them since around 15 weeks, and they are getting slowly stronger as this pregnancy progresses. Sometimes I'll get up to 5-6 a day. I've been timing them, and last around 20 seconds each.

I've been having them (1-2 per day) during the night. I am 27w3d, dont remember exactly when they started but definitely for a few weeks now. They say is normal.

I have been having them since about 15 weeks. I am 24 weeks now and have them every day. I didn't have any with my firs pregnancy.

With my first I started having them at about 13-14 weeks and had them the whole pregnancy randomly and he was one week overdue. I didn't start having them with my second until 37 weeks but I had them every 15-30 mins until I went into labor at 5 days over.

This is my first pregnancy to get this far so maybe that has something to do with it.
