Contractions hurt and can be timed regular. Braxton hicks do not hurt just lots of pressure and a balling sensation with hard uterus and they r irregular
Braxton hicks are just tightenings they can be very uncomfortable but not really painful, contraction's are quite painfull and regular, how far on are u?
I went into the hospital at 39 weeks because i thought i was dehydrated and so on so they hooked me up to see babys heartrate and contractions. The nurse would ask me if i felt the contractions i was having. I thought it was the baby kicking once and a gassy feeling another time. I only felt one and actually thought it was a contraction. My bh did just feel like my stomach got hard for the most part, but for me those contractions weren't painful at all.
39 weeks , could bH be regular ?
If you are having them every five mins go to er now.You shouldn't have bh more than four an hour and should not be regular.
