Are your Braxton Hicks painful?!

Question

I'm 37 weeks and for 3 days I've been getting painful BH about 4 times a day! They feel like actual contractions. This is my 2nd pregnancy and i nevet got painful ones with my first!

Answer

4 times a day would be glorious for me 😂
Mine tend to be more painful if my bladder is full or if there’s more pressure from baby depending on my position

Answer

Sometimes.  Especially if baby is really against my cervix or I have a very full bladder.     At some point almost every night I wake up to a very painful contraction bc I have to pee really bad

Answer

Also my second pregnancy. I though they were Braxton Hicks but I was in the hospital having them 2-3 minutes apart and the dr said they were real contractions! Just not extreme enough to make me dilate

Answer

I think they get more painful the farther along you get
