BH every time I bend over

[jlw617]

Ok so I'm thinking it's just from doing too much today...I've been nesting like crazy as the thought of having another baby in most likely less than 90 days (based on 2 previous early births) is making me a little crazy!!!!! Any how later in the day, I noticed every time I would bend over, I was having Braxton hicks, my whole belly would go hard as a rock...any one else have something similar?

Oh and FYI I am drinking tons of water so I'm not dehydrated,met was happening last night as well when I was painting the armoire for our baby's room which by the way we were using chalk paint which is safe for pregnant women to paint with...

I got my first Braxton hicks this pregnancy yesterday, twice, and once today so far. I'm 17 weeks but its with baby #5 and every pregnancy I feel them earlier and earlier so I'm not at all surprised. When I am around 25+ weeks I feel them daily many times a day and strong enough that I have to stop what I'm doing to breathe through it. Its not painful just super tight and uncomfortable. So I say yes its totally normal and just par for the course

With my sons pregnancy, I had a TON of BH from 20-35 weeks. I went to L&D all the time... Everything caused them for me! Bending over, sitting down, walking, sex (obv), anything! I ended up with a c section at 40+2, so they did nothing, but they were annoying and scary. Call your dr and let them know. I drank natural calm magnesium and that helped SO much
