Seriously? Braxton Hicks already?!

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I started getting them with DD around 8-9 weeks and I thought THAT was early. I'm only 4w1d... sheesh, has my uterus even grown yet?!

If someone told me they had BH at 4 weeks I'd tell them they were nuts. :

Off to go drink some water

wow, does it just feel like cramping? I'm not sure I remember how BHs feel...like a belt tightening, right?

Ok, now I don't feel so crazy. I was totally feeling BH last week. I thought I must be nuts and it had to be something else. I have had 'irritable utterus' with my past pregnancies, so I'm a little bit concerned with having BH this early. I'm still not convinced that they are BH, but nonetheless I am drinking as much as I can.

And Shwarma, my BH are exactly like that, my stomach gets hard and it feels tighter, and I can get the BH to stop if I change what I'm doing. (ie, if I'm sitting, I get up and get moving and the BH will go away)

I've been contracting while nursing since before I knew I was pregnant, my positive test was at 4 weeks 1 day.
