Braxton Hicks?

I was relaxing yesterday evening in the recliner, and out of no where I got a sharp stabbing pain, maybe 2 inches to the right of my belly button. I rubbed it a little and it went away within a minute.

Last night, I woke up in the middle of the night to go pee. As I was trying to get out of bed, I had the same pain. This time it was 10x worse! Like it took my breath away and I couldn’t move it was so intense. After a few mins of trying to stretch and breathe through it, it finally went away. I was able to get up and go pee and finally fall back asleep with just a dull achey kinda pain.

Was this my first taste at Braxton Hicks contractions?
