Braxton Hicks Contractions

TeenMommie97 · February 2015

I'm currently 32 weeks and 1 day pregnant. I've read thatI should be having Hicks Contractions and they should be getting more intense but I haven't had them yet. Am I just a lucky one or should I be worried?? :-/ :-?

Never had them with my son. Consider yourself lucky!

I have had a few BH contractions but nothing more.

I'm 33 weeks tomorrow and if say they started about 2 weeks ago, I thought they were baby girl just moving around at first but now that I've gotten more accustom to them I can tell the contractions apart from her movement.
They haven't been anything intense and I wouldn't even describe them as painful, now that lightening crotch and lightning boob, that takes my breath away!

I never had them with my first two. They are definitely more pronounced with each pregnancy.

I will be 35 weeks tomorrow and I don't think I've had any.

I am nearly 33 weeks and have had BH off and on for the last couple months. I wouldn't worry if your doctor isn't worried. Every pregnancy is different and some people have more BH than others.

I'm almost 32 weeks and a FTM so I honestly can't say whether I've had them or not. From what I hear they are painless and just feel like your uterus is tightening, but LO moves around so much sometimes I can't tell if it's him or BH.

Consider yourself lucky! Just like my 1st I have been having BH multiple times daily for a few weeks now. Some days more than others.

I had really light ones with my first wasn't sure they were even BH, this second time around they are crippling! Okay that's a little exaggerated but they aren't as soft. I spoke to the nurse and she told me due to the barometric pressure from the snow and weather here in MA they are worse. Who would've thought?

I'm also in MA! I've had some BHC they mostly just make my stomach feel tight and I feel out of breath for a moment.

This is my 3rd pregnancy and 1st time having what I am pretty sure is Braxton Hicks. They hurt! Almost forgot what menstrual cramps felt like till today. @TeenMommie97 they are not something you 'are supposed to have' and BH shouldn't get more intense, but regular contractions should and do. Hope that helps

You probably are having contrctions even though you might not notice them. My first pregnancy was high risk so I had a good deal of NSTs in the weeks leading up to our baby's birth. It always amazed me to see how much I was contracting during the NSTs, but I really did not feel a thing.
