Hi girls

I've been getting more BH as I get nearer my due date but I've been noticing that sometimes I seem to get a bit of hot flush when they come and feel like I can feel my heart really strong......not racing or anything, just much more aware of it beating in my chest.

Anyone else experience this?

I'm wondering if it's a rush of hormones or something? Feel fine before and after xxx
 
Im not too sure hun as Im not as far along as you hun, but I reckon that cos ur uterus would be quite high, when you get a BH and it goes solid, its probably putting extra pressure on your ribs/chest area so u will be more aware of any feeling in that area
 
No, but what do your bh feel like? I don't think I've had any so far and he's supposed to be here on monday :( x

My whole bump goes really hard hun for about 30-60 seconds............not painful, just incomfortable!........I know at antenatal we were told that not everyone gets them hun so I wouldn't worry xx
 
Aww thank you, I was worried for a minute that I was abnormally behind :) x
 
I've been getting this since week 26. It happens at least 10 times a day. In fact feeling bump right now and its as hard as a rock. Is this not normal?
 
ive had bh since 16w :roll: and ive had chest tightenings (and the most recent-nipple tinglings :lol: ) every time.. ive been told by numerous mws its normal.. i know when a bh is coming coz my chest goes.. i do get worried coz it does take my breath away when they r strong... im worried about being able to breathe in labour :shock: lol!!
 
I just feel a bit like I'm having a hot flush/palpitation type thing but my heart isn't racing, just more pounding? Doesn't happen everytime tho............was thinking it might be to do with position I am and where LO is......if he is squashing a vein or something it may affect things I guess?

I am sure I read BH can start really early but not always aware of them...........but MW at antenatal def said not to worry if u don't get them at all as some people don't...............so I wouldn't worry star fish as I think it's normal either way xxx
 
It could be putting pressure on a vein or something.. When u get it next try moving position drastically and see if it makes a difference..
 
Yep.....I will try and c..........I'm not too bothered by it, it's just a weird feeling! I guess I could always ask MW next week if it's getting any worse or bothering me xx
 
Yeah defo :) I get it alot too and I've mentioned it numerous times to many mws and they don't seem concerned about it.. Still be nice to know why!
