Braxton Hicks

[uncle_bens]

Is anyone else getting them? I wasn't sure what these pains where but I figure they're BH

Sometimes its only on one side, hurts quite a bit actually, my tummy side goes all hard and it lasts for like 15 minutes. I heard moving around helps but it doesn't!

What can I do bout them?

hi,l've had them twice now,only last for a few minutes or so....like a band round tummy makes it go hard but doesnt hurt

Ive had some times when the tummy goes really hard for a bit but put that down to baby just moving. Could be BH.. not very sore but very hard!

Hun BH shouldnt last 15 minutes!? Or do you mean it hardens off and on over 15 minutes?!

Oh crap i'm scared now, they really hurt lol for like 15 minutes. I don't even have a shitty midwife coz of crappy crap crap...

 

[dippy_me]

what do you mean mean you don't have a midwife cos of crappy crap crap???? when you are around 12 weeks you get booked in with antenatal at the hospital.atleast that is how it is done here.then she would give you a mobile phone number to get intouch with her.
another alternative is to go to your doctors and tell them what you've experienced.they are there to help! l presume your doctor knows you are pregnant,if not then make an appointment with him/her and they will book you in at the hospital...that way you will have a midwife.

hope this helps
