Is 15 weeks, 1 day too early to have braxton hicks contractions? ?
I have small pains in my belly, . They only come for a minute or two, but I am still wondering if they are braxton hicks? Or something more serious.... please help me!!!! thanks yall'also my lower belly get tighte and hard
 
You get braxton hicks almost straight away but it isn't usually until 20 ish weeks that you feel them although i think it may get earlier the more pregnancies you have! I started getting them recently with this baby! It is like tightenings that can be uncomfortable for a minute so it sounds like it, maybe chack with your mw x
 
Braxton Hicks actually start around 6 weeks, you just don't feel them that early... that said, Braxton Hicks shouldn't hurt at all. Try drinking a couple of glasses of water and rest with your feet up for a bit. If the pains don't go away then you should probably phone your doctor/midwife.
