This is my second bub and im experiencing early braxton hicks (since 14 weeks) with my first they were so strong and painful I couldnt move while I was having them and sometimes put me in tears. This time they are already getting that bad and im only 18 weeks. My midwife said they will probably be worse this time around. They make me have to stop and curl over it feels like my uterus is stretching beyond its ability and lasts 2-3 minutes. Im wondering if any one else experiences braxton hicks this badly?
