Re: braxton hicks
I never felt them with my DD in my last pregnancy.....this time (I'm 38 weeks) I feel menstrual type cramping, but not the traditional type tightening BH contractions people describe.

Re: braxton hicks
I get menstral like cramping very low which started about 2 wks ago off and on but no real tightening. The dr said it's from him getting into position..??

Re: braxton hicks
i am 32 weeks and i haven't felt them either. I'm guessing that's a good thing. 
I think everyone is different. Some feel them and some don't.

Re: braxton hicks
I'm 35 weeks and swear I felt them the other night. Although this is my first pregnancy I was kinda like Whoa what is that? There were pains that started and stopped 3 times over 10 minutes then went away. Not severe but enough for me to feel an "oww what is that"?
This was them right? Wanna make sure what to look for!

Re: braxton hicks
My doctor told me they usually start at 28 weeks and get more intense until the very end.
Mine started at 29 weeks but everyone is different, some people get them earlier in the pregnancy.

Re: braxton hicks
I am 32 weeks and I get them, had 2 yesterday. I also had them earlier on, but until last week I didn't know that they were BH's. I just thought his head was pushing against my "who ha"
It lasts like 30 seconds or less each time but it def gets tight like he is really pushing his head against the wall down there.
