Contractions?

Question

FTM here. So when I read my weekly update (33 weeks tomorrow) on my various apps it mentioned something about how "contractions will continue". I dont think I have had any contractions yet or thought they would happen until later. 
When do people typically get Braxton Hicks? Or Normal Contractions? I just want to be prepared for anything.

Answer

I didn’t experience Braxton Hicks with my first two pregnancy and i has to be induced both times, so I didn’t feel real contractions until the meds kicked in. This pregnancy, I’ve been having Braxton Hicks for the last 4 weeks, which have turnt up a notch the last week or so. I’ve felt 1 contraction ( like a 2 outta 10 in pain) that wrapped from the top of my stomach to my lower back. It didn’t last longer and only happened once.

Answer

I think it’s so different with every pregnancy! This is my third baby and this is the first time I have experienced contractions not being in labor!

Answer

Some people never notice "practice contractions" some get them constantly, it's really different even from 1 pregnancy to the next, withy first I don't remember getting any, my 2nd and 3rd I got them 1st trimester onwards, this pregnancy I got them starting a few days ago, I'm currently 30+4
Depends on the woman, the pregnancy, some have an "irritable uterus"
