Google says they can be. My doctor told me they shouldn't be. I never know which to believe lol he said if they hurt then its either false labor or real labor.

No braxton hicks can hurt and can be rather painful. Again was in l&d for that at 26 weeks. Just 2 weeks ago.

If its braxton hicks it shouldn't hurt it should just feel like pressure. False labor contractions do hurt though. That is probably what it is. Just watch it for real labor symptoms
