Do some women NOT have Braxton Hicks?

Question

I don’t think I ever had them with my first, and I don’t think I’ve had any during this pregnancy either. Normal? Am I just not noticing them?

Answer

I have an irritable uterus, so I feel them all the time. However, lots of women don't notice them at all.

Answer

I didn’t with my first, at least none that I noticed. I don’t think I’ve had any with this pregnancy either. Sometimes I get a crampy, tight feeling on my right side of my belly but it’s not like a period cramp so I don’t know!

Answer

I didn’t ever feel them with my first! But I’ve been having them here and there with this pregnancy since 18 weeks.

Answer

I was 18 with my first and don’t remember having any at all. My second was 2 years ago and I would get them mainly during the third trimester. Anytime I would take a walk or not drink a lot of water I’d get them. Also if the baby kicked a lot it would start them. 
I am now 27 weeks with my third and I’ve gotten them a lot!!

Answer

I didn’t have any with my first! With my second I was surprised to get them. They started at 25 weeks. It took me a while to realize what they were since I never had them with my first. When I passed 25 weeks with this pregnancy I thought maybe it was going to be the same as my first pregnancy and I wouldn’t get them but I’m 28w3d and they have started two days ago. Not nearly as bad as with my second though!

Answer

I didn’t feel any with my first, have felt some this time around.

Answer

I never felt any with my first. I had twice weekly NST's for the last 6 weeks of my pregnancy and they never detected any contractions then either.

Answer

i don’t have any!

Answer

It is possible that some do not. However they could be having small ones that don’t even seem like much more than light period cramps and don’t notice.

Answer

I never had, or never felt, any during my first pregnancy. I have not noticed any during this pregnancy either yet 🤷🏻‍♀️
