braxton hicks!

[harry]

does anyone know if getting braxton hicks through out your pregnancy will make labour any easier???

I wish... but sadly no...

Everyone gets them throughout pregnancy it's just that you don't feel them till later on. I told my midwife that I thought I could feel BH and she went pale. She examined me said I shouldn't worry and that I shouldn't start to feel them for a good few weeks yet.

They get really strong towards the end, not painful but they do take your breath away!!
