I woke up last night im agony! Should i be worried?

Hi everyone I'm 23 weeks pregnant due 5th April. I woke up last night with terrible stomach cramps to the point I couldn't walk. I felt like I was going to be sick because of the pain. I have an 8 yr old already so know what contractions feel like and this was very similar. So maybe Braxton hicks but didn't know you could get them this early and didn't expect them to hurt quite this much. I ended up curled up on my bedroom floor where I tried to get up to walk the pain off. Has anyone else had this?

I am due April 4th with my third child.i have been having Braxton hicks for a couple months now! I never remember getting them that early before..hopefully it means my labor will be quick lol Braxton hicks should not leave you in pain though..it's more of just a tightening..sometimes takes your breathe away but not super painful..i would tell doc

You should double check with your doctor. It's probably nothing but that happened to me and I was put on bedrest for a bit. But I also have preeclampsia so that probably contributed to it. Doesn't hurt to ask
