Braxton Hicks?
Posted: 07-01-05 01:17am

How early is too early to be feeling braxton hicks? The reason I ask.. My sis is 25 weeks almost with her second baby.. (a boy) and she has started feeling some labour pains.. (braxton) she know obviously what real labour feels like being this is her second!

I have never heard of this happening so early is it something she should be alarmed about.. From the begining of her pregnancy she has found that this baby is sitting way lower on her pelvic bones than her daughter did! This in itself has caused her many sleepless nights, and back aches mainly around her tail bone!..

Anyway if anyone knows if this is normal or not.. Please pass on the info!!!
I have been telling her to see her doc, she says.. "nah its normal!!!"

thanks!

Sandra, but if it were an etopic pregnancy I think my sister would be dead by now.. She is 25 weeks pregnant.. She has already had an ultrasound (hence she having a boy!) and everything is otherwise fine..

Etopics can not go that far!!!

As it is her 2nd preg, they can happen earlier as she knows what to feel for. As long as she doesn;t have more than 5 in an hour she should be fine.
