I'm so sick of the increase in braxton hicks! They're driving me mad! Also I've developed a ridiculously painful hand, it's so sore I am struggling to grip! Grrrrrr!
 
Could the painful hand be carpol tunnel? I haven't has BH yet, well i don't think i have :S
 
I have no idea. I fell asleep on Thursday night and woke up Friday morning with the pain! I'll lend you the braxton hicks! Lol
 
i dont get any braxton hicks at all but have chronic carpel tunel in both wrists its a nightmare try not to bend your wrist at night when you go to sleep as thats what makes it worse [if it that] and u have my sympathys as i know how it feels
 
Thanks Hun I'll try not to bend x going to go to doctors on Wednesday after consultant appt to see if that's what it is x

LM-I don't have rib pain as such but feel like I've bruised under my ribs on the right hand side which is achy and sore x think I'll stick with the braxton's though!
 
i get BH when i walk, its uncomfterble but not painful for me.

let us know what your GP says.

ive started to get pins n needles in my arms and legs, not often but more then before!
 
Know what you mean about the BH. I seem to have them loads. Have also gained a really painful groin. The Midwife said it is because it's head keeps hitting my pelvis. Finding it had to move at the mo.
 
please lend me some BHs, I would so like to know my body knew it was about to give birth , i would also like to know it was getting closer too.

I'm mentally sending them your way! Lol x I didn't have any with DD (or not that I noticed) but have had loads this time! Obviously my uterus figures that after 6 years it needs loads of practice!

hi lovely could i ask you about BH its been 8 years since my last baby so cant really remember but always thought it was where your bump would go hard and not that painful. today my bumps been going hard but also gets pains in my lower back and lower period type pains?? would you say that sounds like BH this is baby number 3 so wondered if they could be alittle more painful xx
 
Sounds like them, sometimes my back hurts with them but I just pit that down to my dodgy back! Lol! x they don't hurt anywhere else but as you say with no3 it might be different x they're getting more uncomfortable now though!
