Symptoms

I have been having tons of Braxton hicks, most of them not painful but here and there I have an intense one that is pretty uncomfortable. Well last night I woke up to the WORST pain ever in my stomach and realized it was a contraction. I started panicking thinking “holy crap 💩 it’s happening” but then after a minute it faded away and I was back to my normal “Braxton hicks”. I also ended up getting very nauseous and hot.

This contraction was so much different then my real contractions with my first. With my first it was all in my back and pelvis. I had zero pain in my stomach. This one was in my stomach and pelvis area. It was intense pressure and intense sharpness, and extreme tightness. It was wild.

Anyone else have contractions like this with other babies? Or did you mostly feel them in your back or other areas? This pregnancy has been 100% different than my first. I was so sick with my first and this one haven’t been sick at all!
