Mine don't feel like cramps.. no pain at all.. feels like my son is rolling up in a ball and just stuck there.. lasts about 30 seconds.. stomach gets super hard and tight. ROCK solid. I didn't know that was what i was having at first but asked my doctor and she said yes. She said they usually come at 32+ weeks. But I got them at 30 weeks (I will be 32 weeks on Sunday) but she said it is perfectly normal.

I have them all the time. Probably bc I'm on my feet a lot at work.  I hate it.

I never had them with my first 2 kids. I am 31wks, 6days today and I've been feeling them for about a month now, with my 3rd baby. Every pregnancy is different, even if they're your own. Some of my Braxton Hicks are slightly uncomfortable, and some are pretty rough. But none of them compare to what I remember labor to be. Hang in there Mommy's...happy baby ♡
