Braxton Hicks? how many is too many?

[littlesteph]

it's probably been asked a thousand times, but how many is too many?
i'm having them every day. I don't think it's from dehydration as i'm actually drinking more then I was.
but I get anything from as little as 3 in a day to as many 16 in a day.
today being my 16 in day.
I have my next midwife appointment next week so thinking about asking her but not sure if it's worth it or not.

This is my 3rd baby and I have had tons more than I remember with my other two.
I did mention it to my midwife and she noted it down in my notes but didn't say much, advised on water and relaxing xx
Hope you get some relief soon x

This is my second, and I'm 23 weeks. I get pretty strong BH all the time! My doctor said it's totally normal (As long as they aren't regular, and all that jazz). She said just rest if it is uncomfortable and keep drinking fluids! Changing position is supposed to help (although not much helps when my stomach is rock hard!)
I would definitely bring it up, though, just so they have it in your file!

I had irritable uterus last time so I don't know if its just that coming back.
today I've had a few painful ones all while I was at work, I know it's not because of lack of fluids as I had drank a litre at work, and another half a litre since. which is more then usual. resting is pretty much out of the question. I have 2 little ones 2 and 1 and I work so the only time I can rest is when the boys are in bed.
