Pregnant after a Loss

Just curious about when you first felt BH

Just out of curiousity, I'm pretty sure I haven't felt them yet.  I was just wondering when you first felt them and what they felt like.  TIA!

Re: Just curious about when you first felt BH

  • I felt my first one at 30wks exactly! Your tummy tightens up and it gets a weird shape to it. I didn't get them daily though until around 32 wks.

  • Last week was the first time I noticed them (33w) and I have noticed them consistently since.

  • I started getting them very early, like around 18 weeks, but only a couple of times a week. By 28 weeks I was getting at least one a day. Now I get several a day, if not several "fits" of them a day (like for an hour or 2 I'll have them every 15 mins or so then they'll just stop). It really just feels like your belly gets super tight. Sometimes I would feel them all over, other times just below my belly button.

  • Mine started pretty early on too, I don't know if maybe it is bc this is my 2nd child or what. I was right around 20wks or so when I first started experiencing them, though they were really random and didn't happen every single day. Now I get them every day, several times a day. I find drinking water helps to make them stop most times though. They basically feel like my tummy gets really really tight and it gets hard to breathe for a min or two, then it's gone!

  • Oh, yeah! I forgot to add that it does get hard for me to breathe too when I have them. I also get hot flashes during it or right after it. Its really very attractive.
