Yesterday I started getting cramps in my
uterus and I didnt know what they were, my
co-worker today told me they were braxton
hicks contractions. It felt like my
uterus was cramping, is that what they
feel like? I had no idea I could get
them at 22 weeks

My stomach gets real tight sometimes for a
min... Its painless but someone told me
that was prob braxton hix I dont know
though I guess I just have to wait for the
real deal haha
How far along are you? Mine werent
hurting really bad but they did have a
little pain with them.
My girl is very active today, it feels
like she is growing more by the minute
now, I feel her moving every which way its
crazy!

Well im like 30 weeks now so I was prob
about what u are now..I read in my book
"what to expect when expecting" that
braxton hicks can be painless/ sometimes
when my baby kicks and I look at my
stomach I can actually see my stomach
twitching

hi, yeah, it is normal for them to start
at 5 mon, don't be worried, just your body
"practicing" I never had or have them, I
thought I was last wk, but sorry to say I
just had to use the pregnant mother's
room!!!! But then when I had both of my
girls, I still didn;t have contractions on
my own, my water broke first and then I
had to be induced w/ pitocin (you probably
read that about me b4, sorry to be
redundant) anyway, like I said, no
worries
