Braxton Hicks comparison?

HaruhiChan

Could Braxton hicks be compared to slight cramps? Very similar to first trimester cramping, but not as frequent. I'm just mostly curious about that as I do have cramps still off and on and have since first tri ended.

Maybe round ligament pain?

I have that. It's a sharp pain like my belly is falling out of my hips at times lol does not feel the same as the cramps.

I feel that too, especially when I move quicker than I want to.

Brutal sometimes, isn't it? Wakes me up at times when I roll over in my sleep lol

Omg, truth! I jerked my legs to turn over last night and got this bitchin' pain in my right side. I gasped in pain and woke poor hubby up, lol. He was freakin out I had to explain it was okay just moved a little quicker than I should have. Poor guy geeks every time I have a little pain. Lol.

Lol sounds like the polar opposite of my husband. Some days it reduces me to a waddle! And I can't keep up with him walking places lol

I'm not sure if what I'm having is Braxton hicks or the babies doing something but for me I think it's a tightening feeling. My stomach feels hard from the outside and it kind of takes my breath away if I'm standing and makes it hard to walk. But again I don't know for sure what it is.
