Braxton Hicks can start as early at 18 weeks. I've been getting them since then.

No , 3 4 a day is not too many. .  I have been getting them throughout the day.... But without period like pain at the same time,  if you understand me.  However I do have period like pain once or twice a day,  sometimes that many in one week. . So weird !

That's not too early, I have been getting them since wk 20 I think :) just make sure you don't have them too often (4 or 5 an hour)..  and they should be painless
