braxton hicks.

Just curious on what it feels like. I read somewhere that they can happen anytime and they can be noticed around 20 weeks?

Would it feel similar to constipation?! Pretty sure I felt them like six times in one day! (Yesterday) none since

Your tummy gets hard and a little warm. You will feel a tightening of your uterus that may last 30-60 secs. I have been noticing them around 16 weeks.

For me my stomach gets really hard. Its almost hard to breath and I get a hot flash. Its not painful but can make me stop what your doing occasionally.
