Braxton Hicks?

I know it seems SUPER early for them, but I'm convinced I had one this morning at 13w3d. I'm pregnant with twins and the right side of my stomach (where one of the babies is) tightened up in a hard ball and stayed that way for a couple minutes. It didn't hurt, it was just odd. (I checked for HBs with my doppler and found both babies right away.) Nothing else has happened since. I did notice that my urine was on the dark side this morning, so I'm thinking it may be because I'm a little dehydrated--I've been pushing fluids ever since. Has anyone else felt something similar with your current pregnancy or in the past? How far along are/were you?

  • Hehe, I love it now when I feel that.  I am completely convinced that is the twin on that side just being positioned close to the skin and pushing for more room.  That is the only way I can describe it.  Not long after, I started feeling flutters.  I'm now 16-1/2 weeks along :)

  • Glad to know I'm not the only one. :) I actually started feeling tiny flutters a couple days ago, so I was wondering if it's actually BH or just the twin on my right flipping over.
  • I started at 13w. Mostly at night :)
  • Yes I have had this happen a couple times!  Usually at night!

  • Thanks ladies! That makes me feel better.
  • I started getting BH around 16 weeks.

                              

  • I had BH very early with DD1 and once again have them early and often with the twins. When I do manual labor, they come more often, but on a regular day I get them 1 or 2 times a day, minimum.

    This. I had that feeling really early on and you could see a solid lump on one side, but I could tell that the entire uterus wasn't contracting. I joked that one baby was sitting on top of the other :).
