You can tell if its Braxton Hicks by feeling your belly, if it feels tight (almost like someone blew up a balloon in your belly) that's what it is, if not it could be something else

Braxton Hicks can start really at any time. It's normal. :) Don't worry.

My mom had uncomfortable Braxton Hicks that lasted 10 min at a time. They'd make her break a sweat! The further along I have gotten mine have gotten more uncomfortable as well.

That could be round ligament pain! Braxton hicks don't last 5 minutes! They're more of just an uncomfortable tightening of your entire uterus!
