Braxton Hicks? FTM

Question

Can someone tell me if what I’m experiencing is Braxton Hicks? I keep getting like a tightening pain that seems to wrap from my pelvis to my back. Sorta feels like menstrual cramps and the need to poop at the same time. It lasts about 30 seconds and then goes away. I’ve had it happen a lot today so just wondering if that’s what that is. TIA!

Answer

I've been experiencing the same thing all day! Gggr. I assume they are Braxton Hicks.

Answer

Yes definitely Braxton Hicks. The best way to see if they’re BH and not early labor contractions is if you rest and drink some water, they should go away or become less consistent. I get them every day now and it’s not fun, they’re so uncomfortable!

Answer

Sounds like Braxton Hicks. Braxton Hicks aren’t constant and will go away if you change position or move. Really contractions are consistent, do not go away and get closer together. I hope that helps!
