This girl right here! I have no idea if I've had any or not. Everything I've felt just feels like the baby moving around. My weekly NSTs haven't picked up any either though, so maybe I just haven't had any? I'll be 35 weeks on Friday.
I am not sure if I have had any. My midwife said they can feel like the baby balling up or pressing really hard against your abdomen. I have had that, but when I put my hand there I can also feel the baby moving so I am not sure if it is that, or both, or whatever. I really haven't had anything that I can say with 100% certainty it is a BH.

none here either...I'm 32 weeks and haven't felt anything other than movement. I understand it should feel like a stomach-tightening, like your stomach goes all hard or something. Nothing like that for me.
I have no idea if I have or haven't. Everything I have read said they would be painless, so how would I even know if I'm having one?
The pp that mentioned the baby "balling up" really sounds familiar, but like she said, I feel the baby moving, and plus I'll still have soft spots...wierd

BFP #3 02/23/13...SURPRISE!
I haven't felt anything, but the intake nurse at my last appointment said I was probably getting them and not noticing. She said not everyone gets the stomach hardening and since my LO never stops moving that I'm probably not noticing the BH because I'm just feeling movement and the BH are occurring at the same time.
I never knew what they were supposed to feel like until our birthing class. I think I may have had a couple but I really don't know. There are times when I feel like there is a lot of pressure from the inside but I always thought it was just my stomach needing to grow a little. Now I'm wondering if that's BH. My stomach doesn't necessarily feel any harder than usual but the pressure on the inside is pretty strong.
I am 34 weeks and just recently started feeling them. Even then I don't always feel them, most of the time I just notice my belly getting really tight.
None that I'm aware of. Sometimes I feel my belly get really tight, but it'll be tight for like 30 minutes, and I can feel my LO pressing up against it, so I just assume it's from the way he/she is positioned.
BFP#1 1/31/11 ~ CK came on her due date, 10/10/11!
BFP#2 11/20/12, EDD 7/30/13 ~ heard heartbeat at 6w2d ~ mmc discovered at 8w
I described what I thought was BHs to my OB a couple of weeks ago, and she said that she didn't think that it was anything but LO moving. So...I guess I haven't had any...and I'm 33wks.

Although BH aren't painful, they're uncomfortable, so you're lucky you haven't noted any. I've been having them since about 25 weeks, and they have been increasing in freqeuncy the further along I get. They are different than the baby moving around or pushing out in your belly, for me, its like my entire stomach is very tight, like rock hard, which makes your belly feel extra heavy and uncomfortable.

Same here.

im sure im having them but i dont feel them....
i was the same way with my son, i had nst at the ending and they said i was having bh's and never even knew... lol
With my first I never felt any BH or I was unaware if I had them.
This 2nd pregnancy I feel a ton of them all the time. Maybe it's just knowing what to expect or maybe its just different with every pregnancy.
This which makes me nervous and comfortable at the same time. I am already in pain, I don't neet false labor pain as well.
