braxton hicks

Im 34 going on 35 weeks. Braxton hicks are more intense now. How long did you have intense painful braxton hicks before you went into labour?

Wow I just posted about this too. I'm 33+2 and they seem to get stronger each day, it's definitely made me curl up in bed or even just standing right where I am at times too. I have an appointment today at 3:30,  I'll ask my doctor then and let you ladies know what she says.

With my first I barely felt them but this pregnancy they get bad. I'm 36 weeks and 3 days. Everyone is different though so no one ever knows for sure. Sorry I couldn't help

They have been making me curl up in a ball and cry. My dr has been checking me every 2 weeks for the last month because even she says they shouldnt be this intense.
