all of the ones that I've had have been painful. so yesterday and today I've tried to do nothing so I don't make them come but when I go to move I want to break out in tears

I can no long move in bed without my husband's help due to the pain so I understand. if the contractions get worse and you have 6 to 8 in an hour call your doctor. also mucus plug could be a sign of labor in the next couple weeks. unless you get a bloody show don't worry.

@cdgfreeman, I'm just worried because I've started losing my mucus plug as well as getting more contractions and the pain fro attempting to move it hurts so bad that i want to cry

It sounds like the baby is putting pressure on you and Braxton's hicks shouldn't be painful and should be 4 an hour or less and I would only call your dr if they are continuous and get stronger and more frequent. Otherwise it's normal.

I've had that same pain for weeks. I was told it was just weight from the babies.

@mrsschutte1323,

@mrsshutte1325 it's really sharp pain. and it's like deep in my pelvis. And not yesterday but the day before I had 12 contractions and or Braxton hicks within 3-4 hours. this is my third child and I had my other two early but this is completely different

and the location

Depends on the kind of pain
