Okay so with my first pregnancy I never had Braxton Hicks or contractions before my water had broke so I ask a lot of questions about them because it's new to me if that makes sense lol, but sometimes throughout the day I'll start getting this strong cramping feeling that doesn't actually go away and makes me feel like I have to rush to the bathroom to poop but when I try I don't have to poop but I'm still having the cramping feeling. That's a real contraction and not a Braxton Hick right???

The braxton hicks I experience usually make me feel sore where my abs are it feels like i just did 100 sit ups and it's a uncomfortable feeling no matter what you do that feeling won't go away untill it passes But it's not painfull.

The way some doctors explained it to me so that a Braxton Hicks is really no different from the real thing in terms of what is happening. They’re still preparing your body for labor. The difference is that when you’re really in labor the contractions don’t stop. I was induced so I’ve never gone into real labor, but yes what you described is how I often felt my Braxton Hicks.
