Frequency of Braxton Hicks

This is my first pregnancy, 21 weeks along and was wondering what exactly Braxton Hicks feel like and how frequent they occur. I randomly feel a tightening of my lower abdomen that feels like it turns hard for a good 15 seconds or so. Some days I don't notice the feeling but others I notice it several times a day. When I do feel them, I am usually walking around or have just sat down. What is your thoughts and experiences with BH? Thanks a million ladies!

  • Great advice and thank you! I maybe experience them a handful of times on certain days so that sounds pretty normal. I have heard how important water is. I do notice that they tend to happen the day after I skimp on the H20. Headed for the water bottle right now :) Thanks again!
