Braxton-Hicks

I'm starting to feel an occasional tightening of my uterus maybe once a day. It's not regular or painful. I think they're Braxton-Hicks contractions. Has anyone else been feeling these?

Re: Braxton-Hicks

  • I've been having Brazton Hicks since 16 weeks... they are mostly like period cramps and mine only last about a few seconds and come and go throughout the day. I think as long as its less then 6 a hours your fine... I believe don't quote me though lol.

  • You know, with my first I didn't have any til way late in the pg.  With my second I had them early at like 24-26 wks whenever I'd walk a lot, etc. 

    I swear to you I had two yesterday simply from standing up off the couch/bed after laying down for awhile.  And I'm going through a laundry list of things in my head of what it could be *other* than BH (because isn't it way.too.early. for this!?), but I distinctly remember how they feel and I can't think of anything else it would be.

    I don't want any kind of contrax - practice or not - until I'm way past the point of viability, thanks.  LOL!  Upping my water intake and trying to take it easy...
