These inconsistent ass Braxton Hicks contractions need to take themselves somewhere else for real. Not today Satan. I'm not trying to go to labor and delivery just for them to tell me they don't know why I keep having them all the time, again. Can't wait for my appointment on Thursday, this is ridiculous and stressful and no one has any answers about anything other than I'm not dehydrated. Which I know because I drink water constantly to try to help avoid these things and when ive gone to have them checked out or had them during NSTs I wasn't dehydrated then either. Hoping these last week's fly on by. Ive been resting most of the day and sipping water so I know I didn't do too much to cause this. Ive been up and walked around, ive made sure to eat, I had a bunch of water when they started too. They're not regular enough to call in about though, and they don't hurt really. They're just tightening enough to make me pause and remember to breathe like a normal person thanks to the pressure up by my ribs and lungs. 🤦

Braxton Hicks are a normal part of pregnancy especially in the last trimester.

I know, Ive been kept in labor and delivery twice now after they were consistently happening during an NST so ive been instructed to watch them more seriously and report to my doctor if theyre 4 minutes apart and last longer than an hour due to concerns of possible preterm labor.

@rariszoo, perhaps you have irritated uterus, with my third baby I had them from 12weeks and the last few weeks were crazy I thought he was trying to break free many times! Your doing everything right so don’t be alarmed unless your having painful contractions, lack of movement or bleeding x

I have been having them alot too, to the point I cant do much of anything. I haven't gotten much answers either. I drink 2x the amount of water because of low blood pressure so it's not me being dehydrated either. I have had 4 episodes of it where it's been super super painful and thought I was in labor but I wasn't dilated at all. It's very annoying, but ob said that maybe it means baby is coming sooner then we thought.

Mine have been like that but my blood pressure has been normal. At 32 weeks he first time they kept me at the hospital I was starting to dilate at like a one and my last appointment at 34 weeks I was at 2cm so I'm dilating a little bit but nothing ridiculous. I have to watch them because I never had "painful" contractions with my son until my water broke. But I was having contractions when I went in to be induced already and those dilated me to a 4 before they broke my waters.

I had those a ton at the end of my second pregnancy. They’re kinda annoying but just part of it🤷🏼♀️
