Are your Braxton Hicks contractions painful?

Question

Ladies, we’ve reached 23w4d..and my BH contractions feel as if trying to bring my knees to my chest with a full bladder and a 21 oz baby on it!! Sometimes they are outright menstrual-cramp level. 
I’m not experiencing bleeding, and all ultrasounds/Doppler sounds are fine. These are just pain-in-the-belly (and sometimes almost vagina) Braxton Hicks contractions!!

Answer

First Bub, mildly uncomfortable. This Bub? It literally felt like my whole uterus was being pulled out through my vagina. A lot more uncomfortable/verging on painful. It can apparently get worse with each baby.

Answer

25 weeks and I’m pain free...
