Braxton hicks

[Lulu90]

Do braxton hicks start earlier in your 2nd pregnancy? I was around 30 weeks when I started getting them with my son.

I'm 21 weeks and I've had 4 since this morning xx

They certainly do start earlier in subsequent pregnancies. In my first I only really got them right at the end but 2nd and 3rd definitely got them sooner. Im 17 weeks and I've been feeling them occasionally for a couple of weeks. More so if I haven't drank enough water

I don't think I had any with my daughter and not so far this time either (26 weeks). Or if I've had them I've not recognised them as Braxton hicks.

I got them earlier each time. From about 17 weeks with Harley. Not had any this time. They can come on when you've been over doing it aswel. Bloody pain!! X x
