braxton hicks/ contractions???

What do braxton hicks contractions feel like??

Or real laboring contractions???

 

Just wondering.. I have been having some sharp pains and wanted to know what they might be... I have an appointment with my ob on Wed and I will ask them...

Re: braxton hicks/ contractions???

  • Where are the sharp pains?  It is possible that is what is known as Round Ligament Pains.  Especially if it is in the crotch area.  Contractions and BH don't involve sharp pains unless you are in a latent state of contractions.

  • I've been having contractions for about a week.  Your stomach gets really tight and hard and your back hurts.  They take my breath away a little bit.

    Sharp pains are likely RLP.

  • The pains are near my bottom.. If I am sitting and I get the pain its like it is right under my butt.. It is almost a debilitating pain.. I have to stop what I am doing for the pain to subside.
  • i know that sometimes if i sit in weird positions or for too long my hips and butt start to hurt...but its more so just because all the bones/joints are moving and expanding.  but i would ask your doc if youre concerned
