Question so this is my 2nd child with my 1st I didn’t lose my mucus plug til I went into labor....

It can regenerate and sometjmes either a vag check doing the deed ,doing anything strenuous makes it come out

How do you know rhere not braxton hicks 🤔

Braxton hicks can be painful at times like bearable but enough to make you make weird faces while shopping .

Like today i had them 5-8 mins apart my whole shopping trip by the end of it it got fairly painful but im

Dehydrated and i had

To pee so it just made it so mucj worse

@mamachey, because when I have Braxton Hicks yes it feels the same but when I touch my stomach my it’s not extremely hard and when I have real contractions my whole stomach is extremely hard that’s how my 1st doc helped me tell the difference with my 1st

I lost mine around 30 weeks but I was also 3cm dilated when they checked me so they gave me magnesium and put me on bed rest for the remainder of the pregnancy

Oh ok mine extremely hard like you cant hardly press jtsr all / basket ball

@mamachey, yes like it’s hard as a rock

@shaniiced, ok did u make it 2 full term

Yep thats how my braxton hicks are

I have irritable uterus and i get them each pregnancy from abour 10-12 weeks as time progresses they get more intense

Im on pregnancy #5 so i had alot of dealing with these

Best course of action for me is drink a litre of pedialyte over the course of say half hour and sit and rest or possible take a nice shower and reast

If it does t subside im suppose to go to l&d but i do wait couple weeks afo it was at about 5 mins for an hour rhen 2 doe a few then i showered incase i have to go but it didnt feeel like labour for me i get a “feeling” usually

@mamachey, wow ok

@veunica, I did
