Sometimes you get braxton hicks because you aren't hydrated enough. Im 34+4 and I get them frequently,so I drink several glasses of water and they go away

How far along are you?! I went into labor and was going through labor but just thought it was false because it would go from 5 minutes apart to 9 minutes but turned out I was actually in labor when my boyfriend forced me to go get checked in labor and delivery!

Braxton hicks contractions are real contractions with my first when my water broke I was put on the monitor and it was picking up my Braxton hicks contractions. Had my baby 26 hours later. And with my second by the time I was pushing my contractions were 5-8 minutes apart it was random! Glad I had a homebirth because they probably would have sent me home seeing as my contractions didn't have a pattern.

I've read about false and true labor. I'm feeling real contractions. Can't talk through them, shaking from pain etc. The only thing that tells me they aren't trite labor contractions is that they don't develop a regular pattern. So sick of being in pain for hours with no progress

Braxton Hicks are annoying. Ive been having real contractions all day. I was at the hospital all day they sent me home and I'm being scheduled to be induced tomorrow morning do to high blood pressure. How many weeks are you? And I hope your not like me and actually feel them. I didn't even know I was having contractions. Good luck.
