Braxton Hicks Vs The Big One...

[Vaeda B]

Hi Ladies, thoughts please...

1st baby, 34 Weeks & carrying low.

Last night i started getting period type pains along with solid feeling bump. prob lasting for around a minute. Once it had stopped baby would kick and fuss alot more than usual. Then 15 mins later another one.... slept it off and nothing as bad today. Just alot of pressure/tightnings and crampy feelings very on and off,walking didnt help has made my hips hurt.

BH?? Or something to mention to MW tomorrow? x

That sounds exactly what my first BH felt like. Now sometimes they're just little, or on only one part of my bump, but sometimes my whole bump goes hard and I get cramps. My doctor said as long as they don't get more intense or frequent they are fine. They have always just gone away after an hour or so. You should still tell your midwife though.
