Braxton Hicks Vs True contractions

Moms if you’re having painful “Braxton Hicks”, any type of dull cramping in your back/pelvis while they occur or breathlessness during contractions I’d suggest you go to labor and deliver to get checked out. Don’t wait!

I’m 35 weeks and was seen in labor and delivery thinking i was just having a bad case of Braxton Hicks on & off i was actually having contractions every 4-7 minutes and my contractions were lasting longer than they should’ve which I was thinking the length was normal however the doctor said Oh No! Lol I had to receive 3 bags of IV fluids and a shot to stop the contractions. Had I’d Waited I’d probably end up delivering pre term.
