Long Lasting Braxton Hicks

Jessica

I’m 18 weeks pregnant and I’ve been getting Braxton Hicks since 15 weeks.

I’ve heard them described as only lasting a few seconds. Mine last for several minutes. My belly gets so tight and stays like that for a while. So it’s hard to count contractions because I don’t really know when they begin and end if that makes sense.

Did or does anyone else get these long Braxton Hicks contractions?
