Braxton hicks??

Zoe🇬🇧 • Leo 30 Sept 2020 - my due date baby 💙 Ollie 15 March 2023 - my mermaid baby 💙 Baby #3 due 11 Sept 2024 ❤️

I woke up in the middle of the night with what I’m assuming are braxton hicks, although they were quite painful! Changing positions/getting up didn’t help and they probably went on for about 20-30mins

Anyone else had this? What I’ve read is that BH aren’f usually painful as such :\
