[Mervs Mum]

I've had loads of Braxton Hick's today and this evening.....am I a bit weird because I like it......

 

[Rosie's Mummy]

No you're not weird; you're anticipating your labour thats all I was getting into what I thought was BH last time but I was actually going into preterm labour haha! A few steroid injections later and I was on the way home from the krankenhouse!

 

[Terrie]

exciting!

 

[Me, My Girls & I]

it's not weird to like it!! i used to get them all the time when i was walking around and found it so exciting to think ooo could this be it!!

 

[Mamafy]

I used to crap myself, but only because I had early labours

 

[Mervs Mum]

The earliest I've managed is 40+1 so.......

Dont they say what you eat can cause them........or did I dream that?

 

[Mamafy]

Not drinking enough water can cause them? What stage in your other pg's did you get them?

a bit later with Hebe - maybe about 28 weeks and they built in intensity. You can tell them from proper contractions because they feel lower then radiate up and across the bump. I didnt realised they were BH last time - I just thought Hebe was pushing her back hard against me IYKWIM. I had no idea with Em....I was away with the fairies then...

 

[Me, My Girls & I]

i couldnt tell my BH from proper contractions when i went into labour although i suppose they could have just been BH and then turned into proper contractions!! funny tho, the one time i jsut ignored them and thought it would be a false alarm she was in my arms 2 hours later!!
