Q: Braxton Hicks

I dont know if these pains are braxton hicks or not. I woke up one night at about 3:30 in the morning and it felt like a cramp, like period cramping-it came and went about 3 times. Then last night I had to go to the bathroon and I got up and when I got to the door it felt like period cramping again and it lasted for about 5 seconds and went away. I am 25 weeks right now and I dont know if thats braxton hicks contractions or if its a sign of preterm labor or if its just nothing...

Call your doc and ask him... You could be having bh or labor, if its that painful. Also in doing this drink alot of water 4-5 glasses. You could be dehydrated.
