What exactly does braxton hicks feel like?  I felt tightening of my stomach a couple of times, but it wasn't painful.  I usually only get it when I try and do too much.

I have them all the time! You have more the more children you have and notice them more:) Lucky us! I would talk with your dr about your measurements though! $ weeks does nto sound good and they need to check the size of the baby and your fluid level. I do know that fluid doubles between 23-25 weeks so maybe your has not yet.

yep! definitely have some here....i just had 4 in a row that were ten minutes apart each...that made me a little nervous and they are getting increasingly painful as the days go on but im 33 weeks so i suppose thats expected...im just trying to take it easy now as the last couple weeks ive been WAY too active...maybe thats the case with you as well? oh and my uterus was measuring a couple weeks behind my whole pregnancy but just caught up last week at 32 weeks i was measuring 33 weeks lol! so i think its normal for it to bounce around sometimes...i wouldnt worry you'll prolly catch up just like i did!
