Braxton-hicks Or Signs of Early Labour Posted: 10-24-07 21:36pm
I am having my 4th baby. I am 35 weeks
pregnant today. Over the past few days I
have been experiencing contractions on and
off which can be quite painful. I have
never experienced anything like this with
my previous pregnancies. I have dropped
quite low. Does anyone think I am going
to have this baby early??

Hey! I'm 35 weeks today too. I've heard that
sometimes Braxton Hicks can be painful,
but you shouldn't have more than 4 in an
hr right now. (I think that's correct). If
you're having more than I would def. make
a call to your doctor.

More than 4 an hour = call your doctor. Or
anytime you have a pregnancy worry,
really, it is best to call your doctor's
office and see if they would like for you
to come in.
Things to try (which you probably already
know since this is your 4th pregnancy!):
drinking more water. Dehydration can cause
contractions. Laying on your left side for
a rest can also help settle things down.
