Sex causing Braxton Hicks.. or am I in denial? (40w)

[JustRhi]

Its my due date. How do we celebrate, by doing the deed!
About an hour later I start to get pains. Pretty Damn sure it's Braxton Hicks.

Has anyone else experienced this? I timed them just in case and so far..
22.02. 22.07 and 22.13.

Hurts my back first. Then my stomache. Feels like BH and I felt like this after we had sex last time too! Exactly the same.

Eases a bit when I stand but not by much. But it's not agony!

Please tell me I'm not the only one that experiences this

I'm only 29 weeks and this is exactly how I feel after sex. So for me I know its bh but here's hoping that yours may lead to something!

 

[JustRhi]

Thanks lovey. How long did yours last for afterwards? Xxx

 

[emeeorevan]

About 20 -30 minutes of regular bh.

Could really do with some insight on these feelings. I am so convinced its BH it's unreal.

I've had them for two hours now, roughly 5-10mins apart. But getting no stronger.

Is it normal for sex to mess me up like this lol.

I hope it leads to something for you! I have the same after sex!

 

[JustRhi]

Me too! How long did yours last after Sex mandaa? Having them every 5-10 minutes currently xx

Totally normal can go on for hours in some cases, however sex can always help get those real contractions going.

It did the trick for us (i did have sweep day earlier) within 2hrs after i was at 4-5min apart lasting 60sec then puking started so i knew it was time.

How are you feeling now?
