Curious

If having braxton hicks are you less likely to be induced if you go over.. like if your body is practising then it shouldnt need help am i right?? Maybe already mammys have some experiences they can share

I have been having Braxton hick regular for 2 weeksnow like every 10-15 minutes or so I've been hooked up to a monitor twice & I'm now 8 days over my due date with no real signs of labor, getting induced Sunday because even tho everything looks good now there are risks to letting them go too far for the past week they have told me at 3 appointments you can het induced today but I opted to give him till sunday!

Braxton hicks contractions won't make you go into labor sooner, but they might help make your labor be over quicker ;-) good luck!

I have Braxton hicks all the time and if I don't go by my due date on Wednesday they are inducing me. I never had them with my previous children, but was only induced with 1.  I haven't a clue. Lol

I posted something similar before that I found out how if mommies have often Braxton hicks are more likely to have quick delivery because your contractions will be super efficient,  which makes sense i guess!  I'm having them lots this pregnancy and I'm hoping for somewhat quick delivery :-)
