Posting because I learned this today and idk if itll help anyone else but with my last birth and this pregnancy I cant time my contractions well because of my back labor so I was told today to help time them is to feel my belly, braxton hicks will make your stomach hard, like the tip of your nose, irregular contractions in early labor will feel the same consistency as your chin and real labor contractions your stomach will be as hard as your fore head, I thought that was alot of help tbh!(:
