Braxton Hicks

When did they start in your second pregnancy? My doctor doesnt seem worried, but These Dirty f***ers are driving me crazy and most of them hurt   With my first I didnt have ANY until 33 weeks. Maybe I'm overreacting but its a tad early for this..

I've been having intense BH contractions that aren't relieved by hydration. They hurt and they take my breath away. They've been coming pretty frequently the past few days. I actually called my OB's office about it today. They checked my cervix and my urine and sent me on my way. I was concerned because, like you, I didn't have contractions like this until I was well into my 3rd trimester! They weren't concerned, though.

I never had/noticed them with my first, but I started having them sporadically with this one at about 15 weeks. Everyone I know said they don't hurt...bullsmurf lol.

I'm 38 weeks and just started getting them last week

I called freaking out as well and they were like its normal shoo shoo lol. Yeah whoever said they wernt painful are liars.. Some of them I have to stop for and catch my breath!

Yep, same here! I didn't think they should be this intense so soon, but apparently it's normal!

I'm due one day before you and mine started a few days after my 20 week appointment. They completely take my breath away and my whole belly tightens so much it's almost painful. But apparently normal! Never had them with baby #1 so I know what your feeling and it sucks to hear but it's normal!

I started getting them around 26 or 27 weeks. I don't remember having them at all with my first pregnancy.
