Braxton hicks?

[sickmamma92]

Ok so I am 22 weeks with twins and I don't know if what I am feeling is Braxton hicks or baby a just putting a lot of pressure.   I will get really tight in my lower part of my uterus for maybe 30-45 seconds then it will go away and come back every 10-15 minutes.   Please help. I'm getting aggravated with it because the only way to relieve the discomfort is the sit down or bend over.

Good he told me as long as they don't get longer or any worse I will be ok.  But if they do get longer or more intense hell have to take me off work

How did your doctor's appt go?

[sickmamma92]

L&d won't help unless referred by a dr here.  They are stupid.  

[Shirano]

I'm not saying go to the hospital, just call labour and delivery.

[sickmamma92]

I'm not going to the hospital.  They take way too long.  And when I lay down I don't have the tightness. I see the dr in 9 hours.

[Shirano]

Oh and we must be in the same time zone lol. Good thing hospitals are open 24/7

[acline93]

yep, I'd call in, especially with twins.

[Shirano]

I would go ahead a call in.

[sickmamma92]

Oh yeah it happened more than six times in an hour but it's almost midnight here.

[Shirano]

If you have it more then 6 times an hour I would call in tonight if nit just wait and talk to your doctor about it tomorrow.

Well my upper part is always tight because of where baby b sits so I can't really tell.  But I have an appointment tomorrow morning.  And it just started happening since I went back to work last week.

Usually your whole tummy gets tight with Braxton hicks, however if since the tightening is so regular I would call in and see if they want to check you.
