Braxton Hicks
Hi y'all, 29 + 2 days here. Just wondering if anyone has already had Braxton Hicks contractions? I haven't, but I heard that some women get them as early as the second trimester... is it normal that I haven't?

This is my 2nd pregnancy and I have been having them for a few weeks now! Didn’t really notice them with my first pregnancy.
I’ve started to have them and I’m about there right now
Okay follow up question. Do they feel like cramps? Or is it like a whole separate sensation?
@Inish Mine have felt like very very mild cramps. My stomach gets tight too. Real contractions are very intense.
Some of us don’t have them at all! Especially if it’s first pregnancies so yes it can be normal for sure!!
I'm having them all the freaking time. I literally never had them in my first pregnancy and in this one they've been intense enough that sometimes I have to breathe through it
