I've been noticing some braxton hicks, quite a few over the past hour or so...no pain, but my stomach keeps getting tight. I'm on the verge of calling my doctor, but I'm not sure if I'm overreacting. What would you ladies do? I'll be 25 weeks in a few days

They can be a sign that you need to relax a bit. Drink and lay down or sit down and kick your feet up when you can. Since your going to work just drink water, take it easy, and kick your feet up in your break. Despite resting I got them frequently through my last pregnancy.

the definition of Braxton hicks are your stomach tightening, so it's completely normal

don't be, trust me. I know they're concerning the first time, but they become a way of life.

Braxton hicks are normal. just drink lots of water. if your up and active lay down, if you're sitting down, get up and walk around

Starting TWW. Anyone else?

I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

leahbeth I'm so sorry :( hopefully your cycle continues and you get another shot next month.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️

babybump_user I'm so sorry!
babybump_user My heart hurts for you. I would sue the s*** out of those doctors.
babybump_user So sad and heartbreaking. Brought tears to my eyes. No mother should lose her child so young
