Braxton Hicks after working out?

Does this mean I'm doing too much?  I haven't been working out any more than usual, and I don't over do it by any means either.  Does anyone know if this is normal and ok?

 BTW, I am 27 weeks along.

  • It's normal. At least it was for me what I was pregnant. you'll get them more andd more as you near 40 wks.

  • I had some during my workout today :( Didn't hurt but freaked me the hell out. I know it can be normal, but I am going to cut back a bit.... They started for me about 6 miles into an 8 mile run, so my longest runs will now be 6 miles. I think as long as they aren't painuful and aren't accompanied by bleeding, leaking of fluid, etc, then they are pretty normal.

  • I def get them during a brisk walk- sometimes just a couple and once I had at least 10 BH on a 2 mile walk ; not so much when I do yoga/pilates; but always during and after a "horizontal workout"
  • Make sure you're getting enough water. Sometimes BH can come from being dehydrated too  :)
