BRAXTON HICKS?
Im 19+1weeks. Is it possible for me to have braxton hicks? Im having a period like cramps but goes off when i lay my back then goes on again when i stand or sit. I also feel my baby kick i love it but it adds up to the pain. Don't have any spotting just a bit back pain and period like cramps. Please help.
Thank you ladies! Yes it feels so uncomfortable and it feels like my uterus is being streched from the inside. It's also a bit painful goes away when i lay my back. Im new to it cos i never had it with my first pregnancy. Thanks so much again!(:
Good morning Ladies,
Ok so last week I went to my 21 week ultrasound and was hoping to find out the gender of my baby, but once again no clear shot just legs and and the baby was moving to much and mostly on its stomach lol. The tech lady said there was two lines and said "I think it's a girl." I wasn't to convince of her I think it's a girl. This is my first pregnancy and I'm trying to get a gender reveal party and baby shower in order and I can't. Like I'm impatient. I don't kno what to do.

Everyone has BH throughout their pregnancy from very early on, thougg most do not notice until the later weeks. Im pregnant with my thord and started feeling them around 10 weeks the last two times around, whereas my first i didnt notice until around 25 weeks. When you feel the tightning, feel tour uterus and if it feels very hard and balled up, it is most definitely a BH, which is a tightening of the uterus around the baby. A lot of people tend to think its the baby pushing out or curling out, when it is in fact the uterus :)
Yes it's possible I started getting them around 17 weeks. Although they shouldn't be painful. Just a tightening feeling. It can be uncomfortable. I would let your doctor know just to be on the safe side
Yes very common, Some get it early in pregnancy, Some later on and none at all. Id call in if you start to bleed or you think your water broke. Otherwise sounds very normal. Try a bath or heating /cooling pad , which ever you perfer
