Anyone know the difference?

Hey ladies I've tried posting in my age group forum but nothing. Do any of you know the difference between Round Ligament Pain and Braxton Hicks? Do they feel the same? Or are there differences? Thank you.

I had PUPPS with my first  10 years ago. I had it my last trimester and ended up going 10 days over my due date. The only thing I could do to get comfy is take a warm oatmeal bath

From your last comment here, I'd say that is round ligament pain.

Okay I think I've experienced both I'm just trying to see which one I get more. Mostly its sharp painsi in that last for a few seconds. Sometimes it happens when I move too fast or when I'm not even doing anything. Thank you ladies.

My round ligament pain is in my hips mostly but it feels like if you take a barbie doll and try to bed her legs out to her sides. But my Braxton hicks and pain full I only feel like in my stomach and it feels like I have bricks in there. It gets so hard and heavy

Round ligaments feel like ur stomach stretching belly ur belly button and they can hurt ... Some people don't feel braxton hicks ... Its when ur stomach gets tight for a minute or so and stops again ... If u get more then 4 braxton hicks in a hour u should ring ur doctor .. Round ligaments are more constant
