Moms with daily morning braxton hicks, do they get worse the further along you get? Read description

Question

I wake up and as im moving around I get braxton hicks. I have to rest and hydrate A LOT in order to get them to go away and even then they come back in the evening.
They are super annoying and very uncomfortable(kind of burn). I had bracton hicks my second pregnancy but nothing like this. Im 20 weeks on Monday.
Is this something im gonna have to deal with more and more?

Answer

Worse is difficult to explain. I think they’re more uncomfortable as time goes on because your uterus is larger so at the end your entire torso is seized up whereas earlier on it’s not impacting your entire body. They should still be the same as in not painful, should slow down when relaxing/well hydrated etc. they shouldn’t ever hurt, get progressively longer or more intense. They should always be just tightening but I think they are more of a pain in the butt at like 40 weeks compared to 20 weeks.
