Braxton hicks
What exactly do they feel like? I *think* I've been getting them but I'm not really sure. Do you feel them all over your belly or just really low? And please describe what they feel like. Thanks!

Braxton hicks
it's like a tightening in the belly. The belly gets really hard, almost like contractions and then they stop.

I do kinda think people get them differently too. For me my stomach doesn't get necessarily hard or tight but I feel like someones sitting on my chest for a few seconds.
That's how its been for me for all 4 pregnancies so far...I was able to start feeling them earlier this time around though.

Braxton hicks
I get belly tightness when standing too long or walking too much but it's constant and not like a contraction at all so I don't know if it's BH or not.

Re: Braxton hicks
I have been getting them a ton. My whole stomach tightens so hard for about 15-30 seconds. Sometimes it sort of takes my breath away because of pressure on my lungs.

Re: Braxton hicks
Tightening with no pain or cramps. And not frequent.

This, but I've only noticed it above my belly buttom, it feels really hard when u touch it.
Ppl feel them in different intensities though, sometimes BH are so light that ppl might even feel them.
