braxton hicks???

[Lawafer]

I'm 26 weeks pregnant, went to the er on Saturday due to what I thought was premature labor. Many test were administered all coming back negative, I was told my cervix is nice & thick. My concern is, I'm still having contractions & I feel the baby moving quite a bit below my pubic line. Is that too low, should I be concerned?

I just spent 3 days in hospital and I am 30 weeks.  It surely was not fun.  I was told if I start to feel the braxton hicks to lay down & start drinking lots of water.  It may be that you are getting dehydrated.  Hang in there.

The girl next to me was 24 weeks prego & the NICU came & told her what would happen if she gives birth now...... I assure you, you don't want to go there.  Very dangerous.

All very normal...uncomfortable, but normal.  I went through this from about 30 weeks until I delivered at 38 weeks.  It was off and on.  Trying is correct...lots of fluids helped.  If the contractions begin coming consistently though, do not hesitate to go back.  I always worried about going in too often, but always better to be safe then sorry.  Your in the home stretch!  Only 14 weeks to go.

If you aren't hydrated enough that can make bh worse so make sure u r drinking plenty.

Thank you! I'm trying my best not to worry about every little thing, but its difficult not to.

Its totally normal to feel movement down there, its not low at all. Braxton Hicks are normal too.
