Braxton hicks
I really don't think I have felt a single contraction. I know they are happening, but everything I feel I attribute to her moving around in there. Is it possible that I haven't felt them yet at 31w?

Re: Braxton hicks
BX are not typical contractions they feel like your belly is tight and it gets super hard at times. I started feeling this a couple of weeks ago and couldn't tell what it was because I thought BX would hurt a little like regular contractions but they don't. I told my doctor that I felt like my belly was being tied up inside and she said that was BX so if you have felt some sort of tightness plus noticed your belly is getting hard at times those are BX contractions

Thanks! I haven't felt anything like that. I see my belly change shape and feel something that feels like a butt or an elbow, but I am pretty sure that is baby and not a contraction.

This. Mine don't hurt but depending on where they are they are def. uncomfortable for a few seconds.

Re: Braxton hicks
With my DD I dont remember having any. Now with this pregnancy it has been non stop since like 18 weeks. So annoying after awhile. Don't mean to complain but I have just had enough! 10 times a day at least and it makes me feel like I have to pee.

It's totally ok if you don't have any. My SIL had ONE her entire pregnancy. I've had them since 28 weeks. It's different for everyone.
