Braxton Hicks ?
Posted: 06-22-07 01:39am

hey i just have a quick question. What does braxton hicks feel like? Sometimes when i walk to the store i get like a cramp on my side... is that a braxton hick? Or sometimes my stomach gets really hard and i feel big, but it doesn't hurt. I was just curious cuz i'm 33 weeks and so far i havn't really noticed if i have had a braxton hick or not. thanks for any input

When you have a braxton hicks your stomach should go really hard and feel uncomfortable but not painful and shouldnt last much longer than a few minutes at most, it sounds to me this is what you described. You can get them at anytime but more so in the latter weeks of pregnancy.

I am 34 weeks pregnant today so we must be due around the same time Smile whens your dd? mines 3rd August Smile
