17 weeks with contractions?

[ms_feb]

Hello I'm 17 weeks preggy with my 3rd child & I'm having some contractions & I know what is the different between just cramping & contractions. I didn't experienced this with my 2 pregnancies. The contractions are not really painful. when  tightening just feel uncomfortable.
Anybody else having this? Just feels weird that it's too early? Thanks in advice!☺️

I am too. I think it's normal.That it seems different because our previous pregnancies were completely different. I haven't slept well in days due to pressure in lower back and abdominal pains...But doc says baby is fine

Omg you and me in exact same page with lower back pain too...I guess this ka just something new that we didn't experienced with our previous pregnancy. I'm pretty confident that is normal

I'm also 17weeks and having the same thing going on. Pain in my lower back, abdominal pain/cramps and pain in the rib cage. I'm also high risk due to my age, diabetes and high blood pressure. I'm just concerned because I started with triplets and have lost 2...This is also my 3rd pregnancy. Such a time lapse between though. My other kids are 13yrs and 15yrs!

Its probably braxton hicks, or in other words false contractions. Its annoying but nothing to worry about
