Braxton hicks getting stronger and intense. Any of feel them this bad.
I'm 40+4 weeks and my Braxton hicks are getting so painful and intense. When I get them it's a sharp pain worse then period pain and they last for probably
40 to 50 sec. I also feel them in my lower back. Is this normal? Is anyone feeling these? Let me know please

Sounds like you're close girl! I wish you the best :) hope you have a safe and easy delivery!!
No sadly I haven't had my baby yet. My BH subsided and I didn't get them for a good 4 hours so I didn't bother calling my doctor. But I'm getting these intense contractions again like I was getting them last night. They still aren't 2-5 min apart, they are like 10-12 min apart. I just wanna have my baby already. These contractions are getting more painful and sometimes they just make me cry.
The further you get in your pregnancy the more intense your Braxton hicks will get. But it sounds like you were in early labor and I'm gonna guess you had your baby already!!
I'm 40+4 and feeling the same way. My BH contractions are getting REALLY strong now. Sometimes they take my breath away.
Yes mine are getting stronger too before it was like ok that's fine now it's like omg this really hurts and it do hurt my back too
Sounds like labor to me
This sounds like what I was going through last night and earlier this morning but I was able to sleep thru the night. idk if they stopped or just weren't painful but I ate breakfast and drank some water and now they've kind of subsided. Probably early labor. Im 40 weeks. But yours sound more intense. Since you are farther than your due date, I would call at least or go in bc women tolerate the pain diff than others. So you might be closer than you think!
Probably early labor... I had that for close to 19 hours before they were finally 3-5 mins apart and even then they would vary at like 4 mins then 7 mins. I had an app that I used and I even counted the average amount of time my contractions were!
Yes it does sound like contractions. I wld still call the doctor though and find out whats going on!
It sounds like contractions ppl describe them differently
They aren't 2 to 5 min apart. They are like 10 min apart. Sometimes 8 min. Then they stop for half and hour and then get super intense again. And they just get painful everytime. I can't sleep coz everytime I try to fall asleep I get a painful contraction and it wakes me up.
Sounds to me like labor! Try drinking some water and a warm shower and if they don't go away id go to labor and delivery! Good luck! :)
