How to time Braxton Hicks?

Question

Anyone having these? I feel like I am but sometimes it just feels like my belly is just right for a really long time!! How do I decipher what exactly is considered a Braxton hicks contraction?

Answer

Braxton hicks are not painful and don't need to be times, contractions will become painful and stronger

Answer

Braxton hicks can be painful and if you are having them frequently then you can download a contraction timer app to time them. My doc wanted to know how frequently I was having them to make sure it wasn't preterm labor because mine was so often. Then once I told him he brought me in to check my cervical length, but it turned out to be just bh but the app helped.

Answer

There is no need to time Braxton hicks contractions. Real contractions are totally different. For some they start strong right away and for others they start feeling like period cramps and get stronger.
