What's the deal with Braxton Hicks contractions?
I've had two really intense Braxton Hicks the last half hour that have lasted about 30 seconds each. My stomach gets rock hard & I feel intense pain down there. Should I just leave it alone or should I call my midwife? I'll be 36 weeks on Thursday.

I'd call your dr if it keeps up but try a warm bath and lay on left side and drink water hope it stops the Braxton hicks before they put ya in labor

they shouldn't be really intense (not gonna say not painful cuz i had some that hurt.) but shouldn't be bad. I'd call.

Oh okay they that's normal since your 35 weeks they are gonna start getting more intense. It's your body preparing you for real contractions. If they become 5-3 minutes apart with a steady pattern then call your doctor. But if it's like it is now then just drink cold water or Gatorade. Preferably something with sugar in it and cold and lay on your left side :)
