My best friend is pregnant and this is her 2nd one anyway shes not due until July 3rd and she is having Braxton hicks and shes in so much pain that shes in tears. Shes been on pain for 2 days now. And shes gone too the ob and they say her and the baby are fine and shes gone to the hospital and they thinks shes going to have the baby soon like to soon. Is this normal for her to be in so much pain?
