Braxton hick

Shelby • ! My oldest is two born {1.17.14} & my youngest was born {2.16.16} blessed mommy of two beautiful baby boys!
When have y'all experienced Braxton hick contractions? These past couple days I've started having strong ones , and I'm only 26 weeks as of yesterday! I'm getting a little nervous about going into actual labor really early.

Mine started around 20 weeks and my LO came at 37 weeks. BH aren't a sign of preterm birth. No worries! :)

Braxton hicks are very normal. I started having them at 22 weeks. It's just your uterus practicing

If your worried have doctor monitor you for a little bit.I had the same problem around those weeks and it turns out it was a irritated uterus because I had an uti which I had no symptoms.they gave me antibiotics and it stopped but I'll occasionally have it now and then but I drink water and it helps bc being dehydrated can cause cramps.so make sure you drink plenty of water.

This is my second successful pregnancy so far and I started feeling them around 14 weeks. I think I got them in my 20s with my first but I had NO idea what they were lol.
