Braxton Hicks or something else? TMI

Question

So I heard that Braxton hicks contractions f or similar to cramps but this evening I started getting these weird sharp pains that lasted a few seconds in my vagina hole. I have no idea what that is but my fiancé said it could be Braxton hicks but I thought Braxton hicks was just cramps in the lower abdomen. Any ideas?

Answer

Sounds like you have what they call lightening crotch and you just get sharp pains in your vagina. It is the most uncomfortable thing but normal during pregnancy

Answer

To Braxton hicks felt like a Charlie horse across my stomach and the contractions felt like period cramps that got closer together and stronger
