is it normal?

I am 18weeks pregnant and I have been having contractions for a few weeks now and now I have been feeling pressure in my lower stomach. This I'd my 3rd pregnacy but I have never felt like this with my other 2.

It could be that your placenta is low abd your uterus is stretching. Im 18w+5 wuth my 4th and have been having the same contractions. I went to the hospital and they said it could be the beginning of placenta previa due to each pregnancy attaches to diff spot mine is low

Are they braxton hicks? Have you experienced them with your other pregnancies?
