About to be 35 weeks I'm having tightening in my abdominal area what could that be?

Braxton hicks contractions

Right but it's up really high and the baby already dropped sometimes I have to stop to breath or bend down

it's Braxton hicks

It doesn't feel like Braxton hix I've been having those these are different

maybe labor. the first two times i was in preterm it was strictly tightening to start with. Call your Ob or go get checked:)

sounds like Braxton hicks. they started at around that time with my 7 year old. This time I've had them the whole pregnancy :( if they become regular and or more than 7 mins apart you should go in to labor and delivery.

They do get more intense. Like weeks ago they didn't hurt or anything, and now it actually really hurts for about 15sec. Only on my right side, lower abdominal area makes a tight stretching feeling and lower back hurts really bad. It makes me bend over in pain 😕 but there isn't any real consistency so my doctor said they aren't real labor contractions.

@pregoprincess, if they don't feel like Braxton hicks I'd go in and see what's going on!

Thank you guys @babymay2016 @hermommy @michellevaldez4750

Let us know what you decide to do. It's strange that I worry about the women on here so much and never met anyone! but I really do care about what happens to you ladies and your little ones :)
