braxton hicks
OK I've googled & googled and I'd prefer some testimonials from any mom that's had them? This is my second baby but with my first I never had any of this! Plus i had the epidural so i vaguely remember what contrsctions feel like. I've had them 3 times, it's like an intense back pain and I can barely move around,my tummy gets so hard, I wake up from the pain so I'm not sure how long it is but I'd say about 20 minutes in total. I tty to get up & walk around and breathe and it eventually goes. I haven't told my doctor cus I'm writing it off as hicks, but I think I'm going to call them tomorrow anyways. Any experiences? Does this not sound normal? Baby is due September 22nd, everything has been perfect w/ her though. & also she's very active the whole time!
Talk to your doctor I also have some painful Braxton hicks but turned out I was having legit contractions with bh keep a close eye on them and drink tons of water and lay down that's what they tell me!!! And Tylenol for the super painful ones I'm 34+4 and hoping to have my baby before 40weeks but after 37
Braxton Hicks aren't supposed to be really painful just uncomfortable so I'd deffinatly all your dr. About It
