Anyone else having Braxton Hicks?

I don't remember getting them this early before.

  • I would say that is really early to be feeling BH.

  • I thought I was having them last week or the week before. I haven't had any since then, so it's hard to say for sure, but that's certainly what it felt like to me.

    Try drinking more water and see if that helps. I don't think it's anything to be concerned about though. I did some googling when it happened to me, and it seems like it's fairly common for women to experience BH early on.

  • I didn't know you could get them that early. I never had them with DS, so I'm no help at all.

    I've heard water and putting your feet up help with them. 

  • Yes!  I just felt one like 5 minutes ago.  It's very common to get them earlier and earlier with each pregnancy.  I felt them at about 10ish weeks with my last pregnancy.
  • I actually am 8 weeks and 1 day today.  I went in for an ultrasound this morning.  The nurse  said "did you feel that?"   I said, "feel what?"  she said "I think you had an contraction..."  She showed me the ultrasound and the gestational sac what ruffled looking for a second- but she had frozen the pic to send it to the main RE's office.  After looking online, I saw that  you can get them as early as 6 weeks- suppoedly because your ute may be expanding or growing  to accomodate baby...  but ofcourse you won't feel them at 6 weeks.  But man that ultrasound was weird...
