Braxton Hicks

[MsCali]

Can you have Braxton hicks at 29 weeks and 1 Day ?

I am expecting my 7th child, I have had Braxton Hicks since around 16 weeks!! And actually a woman's uterus begins having small contractions from about 6 weeks but obviously those are not felt. Mine are strong, often and painful at times, but they are never regular or progress. It's completely common!!

I started having them at 26 weeks.  Mine hurt but not bad.  I get them only when I work or stand up too fast. Sometimes I havem 4 or 5 times an hour at 30 weeks.

Ok thanks everyone and congrats

Yes you can. I had them as early as 22 weeks. They weren't painful, just an awkward tightening in my abdomen. 39 weeks now & they have definitely shifted to painful!

Yes you can .. With my first son I had went too the hospital at least 2 times a month my hole pregnancy for them ... I got them cause I didn't drink enough water ... This pregnancy I've been drinking at least 2-3 bottles of water not includeding how many cups of ice I eat and I haven't had any so far *knock on wood*
