I'm a first time mom and I keep seeing something about "braxton hicks" what exactly is that? 😐

its a tightening in your belly. its called false labor. your body does it like to practice for the real thing. its not bad or painful usually

It's your body preparing for the birth of your unborn :) nothing to worry about. It's not painful at all. Uncomfortable at best. The muscles of your uterus will tighten up for 30-60 seconds, doesn't last long and it's completely harmless to you and baby :)

lol I thought it would be a rash or something haha thank you ladies @heidi @jstrong12712
