They used to be just uncomfortable, and tho since i went to l & d a few weeks back n had some stopped i only get them occasionally....

but theyre pretty tightening and pinching...

so wondering when you noticed your being more painful

Mine are not painful, just uncomfortable as always (I started getting them around 17 weeks).

I have at least a few a day that stop me in my tracks.

In the past couple weeks they have been getting stronger. I would not call them painful yet, just an intense amount of downward pressure and breath-taking.

I don't know if I'd describe mine as painful - but they are pretty damn uncomfortable.

Mine have never hurt, they're more annoying than anything else.

I just started getting them last week. They are more frequent and pretty uncomfortable but not really painful.

This... except I have had a few times where they were painful. I usually take it as a sign that I need to drink more water if they hurt too much.

I got a few bh contractions earlier on like around like 23 or 25 weeks. But over the last couple of weeks they have definately gotten more frequent and more uncomfortable. Like some of the other ladies said at times it doesn't seem to matter if I switch the position I am sitting or laying in...they just remain uncomfortable. And they have at times seemed to take my breath away...but have not gotten painful yet.
