Braxton hicks
Im 29 weeks and I started feeling them yesterday..they are not fun. How can u tell the difference between them and the real contractions?
I started feeling BH at 6 months. Mine happen a lot in the day. They don't hurt, just uncomfortable xx
My stomach was tight for a few minutes and it hurt to move ot even breath but then my stomach untightened and i felt better.
The real contractions are consistent. You could basically set a clock around a real contraction, whereas a bh is typically unpredictable.
Practice ones don't get worse over time and don't last long. Real ones hurt frequently minutes apart and get BAD over time increases.
