I'm really concerned that my baby is going to come out earlier than expected. By at least three weeks. I have never had cramps, and back pain has always been a thing so I don't understand the examples people give when it comes to braxton contractions. It makes me uneasy not knowing if I've felt them or not. Arwen moves around so fiercely that it scares me now. I'm happy she's healthy and moving, but I don't have a lot of room to give. I'm afraid she's just going to break everything loose by accident. :<
I never noticed Braxton Hicks and from what I read up on them, it’s pretty common for people not to feel them their first pregnancy. I actually felt my labor contractions in my back more than anything. They felt like the most horrible period cramps, with pain radiating down my legs and in my feet. I actually don’t remember feeling them in my stomach, but that could have been because of how much my back hurt.
@veemndz Alright cool, because that was another example I read about but didn't make any sense to me because. Well. Anatomy lol.
@veemndz Like the actual stomach or your belly. Because they aren't in the same place.
@humblewarriormama I only have pains in my back, I think it's linked to my scoliosis; because that's where my period pains were. However I shouldn't be having them because I'm pregnant so I figured there may be a link there.
