I swear I've had them (I can feel my stomach tightening and releasing in one spot, last for about 30 seconds, then stops), but the nurse at my ob's office says it's just LO curling up in a ball in that one spot. So I really don't know if I've had them or not.
I haven't had any either and I worry that my body isn't preparing itself. I also haven't had any colostrum leaking. I know that doesn't necessarily mean anything, but I still worry.
I never felt them with DS either and didn't realize that I was having them at all. I was complaining to a friend who is an L&D nurse when I was at her house that my stomach had gotten tight and I was massaging it to loosen it up. It only does that sporadically and it doesn't always bother me. She laughed and told me that was a BH contraction, I had no clue it didn't hurt and really only effected the way I could sit down.
Re: I still have had no BH's!
Don't be. Last time I had to be induced 8 days late. My body never did its job.
I wanted to wait, but DS's HR kept dropping.
Can I have some of you BH's?? LOL
Absolutely! Do you want some of the contractions too?
No, keep those till I am 37 wks. TIA.
LOL. Sure - they're not doing anything, thankfully (I think). But super annoying and kinda pissing me off right now.
This is what I told my doctor too.
