Well, last night I had what I'm assuming are braxton hicks contractions. I woke up out of a dead sleep about 1:55 my stomach started tightening and getting tighter. most discomfort I've ever felt. It took my breath away. I'm a FTM 20+6. has anyone else felt these during their first pregnancy? If so was it braxton hicks? I have my anatomy ultrasound today so I guess I could ask my doctor.
