contractions at 18 wks

Is it normal to have contractions at 18wks, and when did you first start getting them? There not painful just feels a lil weird. Should I let my doctor know?

If they're not painful then it's just Braxton hicks contractions.  Real contractions are painful. BH contractions are normal.
