Yup. Welcome to the world of Braxton Hicks. Your body is working out to prep for labor. You got this mama!
Me just had one it was rough they get rough and tuff. I thought my son got mad or irritated or something lol
Wow practice is getting real
i dont want to scare you or anyone but i had the exact same thing untill yesterday it got more apparent and more discomfort. was told to come into hosp and after being on monitor and doing a check for preterm labour it was come back positive. im now staying in hosp for 48 hours to be monitored and been given steroid shots to develop babies lungs incase i go into proper labour. hoping these tightenings dont turn into full blown contractions. im 31 weeks. its farr too early 😣
@Lubna Yes. The same thing happened to me with my first daughter.
@Lubna what exactly did you feel and how often ? I’m 30 and 3 days. The Braxton hicks have increased significantly and sometimes hurt a bit
Mine are frequent and often painful as well. I’m 32+2. I never had any in my first pregnancy 😅
@Andree how far along did you manage to get? did you go to full term? xx
@Brielle id go into hosp and have that checked especially if they feel painful ❤️
@Chrishara tighten and then a release. more so when im walking about or sitting but slouched.
Those are Braxton Hicks! With my first baby I thought it was the baby moving around 😂 second pregnancy I realize they’re just practice contractions
