Braxton Hicks

Did anyone get them fairly often? If so did you go full term? I'm getting them 2-3 times a week. Some people are telling me I will probably go early because of this. I did deliver my daughter at 36w but am getting weekly injections to prevent it (hopefully)

I had BH with all 3 pregnancies. DS was born at 40 weeks, DD at 38. This pregnancy I ended up in L&D bc I was having BH every 5 minutes at 27.5 weeks. I am now 35 weeks and still pregnant so who knows if this will cause her to come early. I still have BH all day every day. Some painful some not.

I got tightening fairly frequently and then I remember having a few days where they came regularly- again, just tightening.

I went into labor at 38w2d.

I was in l&d at 30 weeks they were so painful. Thank you for your reply. I hope they stop for you. They really do stink.

With Hailey i didnt get them (Or didnt feel them) this time i get them about 2-3 times an hour.

i dont think it has any bearing on when the baby is coming.

It's very annoying and frustrating!! I feel like I'm constantly watching the clock and making a plan to get to the hospital!! I'm happy I'm 35 weeks and out of the woods so to speak. I still get tons of them. They are painful but the dr said unless they get MORE painful then I'm ok.

I've gotten them with all three pregnancies. Once with my first they called it preterm labor at 34 weeks but they didn't send me to the hospital (which I found odd) but it went away with rest and drinking lots of fluids. They said I had an irritable uterus. I am 21 weeks and I've been getting them for a while but they're never consistent.

Eta- I delivered at 38 and 39 weeks

I had them off and on only mid-pregnancy with DS. I didn't have a single one during my entire pregnancy with DD. I had them 10 and 15 days early. I am not convinced one has to do with the other.

I had them a lot with this second pregnancy- for weeks! DD finally came a week late. The day I went into labor I still wasn't sure they were real labor pains until they started getting stronger and more frequent like 10 mins apart.
I had Braxton Hicks for several weeks before and was sure it was labor a couple of times!! They suck...
