@camiloalejandra519 yea i walked a lot yesterday n when i got home in bed i was having pain bk to bk

Sometimes you may just need to fart or poop. It happens.

@camiloalejandra519 so mines must be braxton hicks ugh

A way to know contractions don’t go away so easily and are consistent. If you get pains but a bath or switching positions help ease the pain it’s Braxton Hicks.

@brianne well i guess they is braxton hicks

I experienced the real difference this time. My son had me having all kinds of Braxton Hicks. The ones that hurt and the ones that didn’t. When I was in actual labor I was whining and crying like a baby cause I seriously couldn’t handle the pain.

@denisse.m yes thank u...cus my cousin was saying im too far along for them to be braxton hicks

Definitely time them than if you’re feeling them on your bottom in can be a sign of labor.

@tattooedmama_ yes imma start

@myboys1962 time them, then.

@tattooedmama_ these are painful i can feel them n my buttcheeks sometimes

@denisse.m oh ok thanks...yea these do hurt...n my stomach gets really hard like shes balling up

They could very well be BH, i was having them myself, really contractions are painful, they feel more uncomfortable than actual pain.

They still could be. Braxton Hicks are inconsistent painless contractions, better described as "uncomfortable tighting".
