Drinking water staying hydrated helps tell the diff between the real contractions or Braxton hicks it lessens the cramp

@cfernandar24, yea they will get more frequent as you walk and stuff just stay hydrated!!

@v_daloca, thank you! I wanna say I felt a good 5 for real it lasted like 60'second but jeez it was so sharp.. But thank God its not as comum!

Oh yea and scale wise is can hit a 5.6 ....experiencing it for the first time I say a 7 because it's in expected and ur not prepared

It all depends! Sometimes it's just really annoying! Like you think it's painful but when you look at it its just an annoying cramping sensation, like a period....they can get very rough and sharp though but it only last a short time....

@arijane316, thank you so much! I was wondering if the tightening i was having could been them! And I guess so! 😢😜

they're just a tightening in your belly. they don't usually hurt, they're just uncomfortable and they can start at anytime during pregnancy
