Question about braxton Hicks contractions?

Question

I am curious to how they feel , or what you can describe it as .
Yesterday I had woke up to my Top of my stomach area hurting

Like I literally felt like I was having cramp like when you need to poop really bad & than it has just went away .
Ever since nothing else just Back pain and Honestly having a hard time sleeping lately .

Answer

For me, Braxton Hicks felt like my son was pushing really hard against my belly. When I first felt it at 23 weeks I thought he was just pushing really hard but then realized that it was Braxton Hicks. It wasn’t painful at all for me, atleast not until I hit about 35 weeks but I think I was having real contractions then, they just weren’t consistent.. Everyone is different.

Answer

I wasnt really sure what was happening during this. I had felt it a couple times before and just assumed the baby was moving. For me, they are painful at all but feel very strange. It literally feels like your uterus is just balling up. Everything just pulls to the center. Hope this helps!

During a Braxton hicks

After.

Answer

During contractions your entire stomach will get really tight and hard . If they’re real contractions they’ll get closer together evenly spaced in time , and get progressively more painful . Braxton Hicks are random and will go away if you chug water .
