too many braxton hicks??

[savanna09]

Im 41 weeks as of today and ive noticed that im having ALOT of braxton hicks with tons of pressure....I havent timed them, but im sure im having at least 5-7 an hour. There is also some pain slightly above my pubic bone and on both sides of my pubic bone. Is it possible that it's the beginning of labour? Can you have too many braxton hicks?

Might sound crazy but I actually downloaded an app to my phone to use to time my contractions. It worked you just push when it starts and when it stops. It tells you how long they last and how frequent they are. Hope it helps

Thanks for the quick reply! The pressure is killing me, but.not.unbearable. I will definitely start timing them!

I would start timing them and logging it when they hurt! That's how my labor started! I thought it was braxton hicks, but then they got painful n regular! I would write the time one started and if it was really painful or not! As they got closer, it hurt pretty bad! Gooduck hun!!! Hope u get to meet ur baby soon!!!
