Mine are a little painful. At least I guess they are braxton hicks... I get just a few randomly spaced and then they stop.

@falontuba if you feel like you have a problem call your doctor. They can help you figure out whats going on.

Contractions hurt.  Braxton Hicks usually dont.  The only way I find them similar is in the tightening.  But contractions are obviously harder and majorly painful.
