Braxton Hicks

[Sally+Baby]

Hi girlies.

Hope you can help me. How far gone were you when you first had braxton hicks?
I'm 19+1 and this morning I've had tightenings, and period type pain across my back and tummy. Is it too early for BH's? I had 3 in the space of about 15 minutes. I haven't had any since but I have a dull ache in my lower stomach.

Help....I'm a bit worried

I'd call your mw tbh...

I've had BH from around 15 weeks... My mw told me they weren't normal at that stage although they are... however, I never had pain like you describe with them... Bh's aren't painful. Just uncomfortable...If you are having tightenings accompanied by period type pain and back ache... go see your mw....

I've been to the hospital. Cervix is closed thank god.
Thanks for your help girls x
