Do you always get a feeling or discomfort, etc. with Braxton Hicks?

Sometimes I feel like my belly gets harder-- but, I don't really feel that different than before the tightening.

Is this the baby moving, or a BH?

well, since i've never had ANY contractions including BH it is hard for me to say. However, everyone that I've asked has said that you feel a tightening and you definitely know it's not a kick.

That's BH. Your belly just tightens up and gets hard but there is no pain or discomfort really.

sounds like BH. sometimes for me they are like that - other times they give this really annoying feeling that i cant describe.

initially-- I thought they felt like my stomach was getting very gassy, like I was gearing up for a, TMI ALERT, fart-- NOT out of the ordinary for me this entire pregnancy Chat Icon. Then, I just felt the hardening.

Now, it doesn't quite feel the same-- although there are times when the belly is definitely harder-- then it gets all soft again.

My BH's tend to be a bit painful, when my belly tightens I do feel a bit of discomfort, but no unbearable...
