How soon did you ladies get braxton hicks? I'm 21 weeks and started getting them about 20. I never…

had this conversation with my auntie last night ! x

ive had them since about 18/19 weeks and they are getting really uncomfortableat this stage now. its new to me though as with my others i never had one until the real thing! x

Awh right. At least I'm not the only one who's having them around now then. I didn't have them till the end with my first so this is all new to me and I have all my contractions in my back aha @laa286 x

I get worried becuase I didn't have them at all in my last pregnancy and I'm now 29 weeks and still haven't had any .... that I know of :/

I don't think I've had them and I'm 33 weeks. do feel the odd little pains sometimes. x

Not all women have them according to my midwife so I wouldn't worry yourself. It's just baby practicing for the big day @carolannl as long as you are still feeling movement then I wouldn't worry.

You'll know if you've had them. It's like really sharp pains in your down below area and it can take your breathe away @pj xx

ohhh right, don't think I've had that yet then. my auntie is a nurse and she said she don't think she had them. she did say don't worry about it too, just the baby and body getting ready and adjusting x

There nothing like the real thing but they aren't pleasant at all. I'm sure you'll know if you've had them. yeah I wouldn't worry yourself too much. If you've got any questions I always write them down to ask my midwife if I'm concerned about something. Yeah, it is the baby and body getting ready aha x @pj
