braxton hicks sign of labor???

I Never had BH with ds and no labir signs besides contractions either. For the last 4 days I have been having BH all day at least 3 or 4 in an hour. Also I have had this muscle pain in my lower belly. Is this just part of pregnancy or what?

Re: braxton hicks sign of labor???

I think I had BH with #1 maybe twice my whole pregnancy.
I'm the same weeks as you are now and the last few days i'm getting them like crazy, all day! I think its normal. I'm all crampy and my belly hurts, especially the lower half. OB said its ok. If you have more than 10 in an hour...that number might be wrong lol...but whatever then you should call the OB to let them know

Thank you I have an appointment on Friday guess I'll mention it.

Re: braxton hicks sign of labor???

Ive been having the same thing for weeks now. Keep track of the contractions though bc if they ar consistent then you should call your dr.

Re: braxton hicks sign of labor???

I had them on and off my entire 3rd trimester and was late....induced at 40w6d.

Re: braxton hicks sign of labor???

HOnestly I dont think it means anything...

I never had 1 with DS and never went into labor either.

This one I have been having BH consistanly since Christmas.

And muscle pain down low in my belly is a constant thing. I think its because this DC is so much lower in my belly than DS was.

Either way I mentioned it to my dr at my 32 week appt and said said totally normal no big deal.

I go tonight for my 36 week and I plan on mentioning it again.

My Doc told me if I had more then 6 in a hour to call. I get them every day. Most I have had is 4 is an hour.
