Did I have Braxton Hicks?

[anita665]

Last night when OH got into bed he put his very cold hand on my belly and was feeling baby moving.

I was pretty much asleep but not quite & my belly started to go tight & tense all over. It stayed like it for a bit and went normal & then did it again.

It didn't feel anything like I was expecting & it wasn't very strong but I thought OH's cold hand started it. It wasn't at all painful. Just strange. Does this sound like braxton hicks?

OH couldn't feel it even though his hand was on my belly.

Sounds like it to me. Pretty wierd, isn't it?

Certainly sounds like a BH! x

Too be honest I have been having what I think is Braxton Hicks for a while, but as it's my fourth pregnancy I spose I've been noticing things more sooner.

Sounds like it to me. I get them all the time! Sometimes up to 10 times a day. Its a very strange feeling. I get them a lot after I have to use my stomach muscles to pull myself up or readjust in bed or something. Drink lots of water, that will help keep them from happening too often.

Thanks everyone. Wasn't sure if I'd even just imagined it because I was so sleepy but it was exciting. It's all exciting the first time!!

They sure feel funny... except for when you have the painful ones

I kind of thought that's what I was getting but the thought, isn't it a bit early, cause they've been happening for a few weeks now.
Just had one now. x
