Has anyone heard of Braxton Hicks at 11 weeks??

I am not sure if this is possible, but has anyone experienced Braxton Hicks at 11 weeks?  The last 2 days, I swear that I have been having very infrequent BH!  I have been pregnant 4 times before, and I know that the more children you have, the earlier they can start, or so my old doc said, but I have never heard of them being felt this early!  I was just wondering if anyone has had this happen before????

Braxton Hicks actually start at around 6 weeks...but many times are not intense enough for anyone to notice.  Apparently, the more pregnancies you have been through...the earlier you will begin to feel them.

Also keep in mind that SOMETIMES round ligament pain can feel like Braxton Hicks....so it is possible that you are just feeling the normal cramping from that.  

Hope this helps1

I personally have not heard of anyone having them that early, but it could be possible.  I know with my last pregnancy I had gas/constipation that felt like contractions early on.
