Raise your hands if you have been experiencing Braxton Hicks contractions. I didn't have them with my first but I think I have been having them quite often with this bean. What does Braxton Hicks feel like for you?

I am 33 weeks and STILL haven't felt any Braxton Hicks contractions. Is that normal? Has anyone else gone this long without feeling anything?

Was palpitating my belly then said, "You are having a Braxton Hicks right now." I didn't even feel that some people never have Braxton Hicks contractions and that it doesn't have any impact on how labor.

If you do all of that and have more....
I should stop in a minute or two.
Just be sure to stop what you're doing and put your feet up, and the usual drink a ton of water .
A bit disconcerting, but very normal at this stage.
I had my first over the weekend.

I would Hicks and real contractions....
That sounds like real contractions.
Talk to your OB! That doesn't sound like Braxton Hicks.
Braxton Hicks should not be painful...usually the real deal feels like what you are describing.

Mayan....
Sounds like BH to me.
Plenty of water and my feet up for a bit always helps .
Some can take my breath away a bit, or make me feel like I need to sit down .
My belly literally gets HARD.
The best I can explain it is a cramp that is very tightening .

If you have been having Braxton Hicks what do they feel like? I don't recall having them with DS, so not sure what to expect.

Normally women in their 1st.
Having early Braxton Hicks has been my only issue.
Uncomfortable, but didn't hurt.

Am I working?
I still have two months to go, assuming she's somewhat on time, but almost everyone seems to have BH starting in the second tri and some nipple leakage by now. I'm probably over-thinking but shouldn't things be rolling in those departments...
