anyone else NOT feeling Braxton-Hicks?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
My midwife last Sat. upon checking my belly asked me if I could "feel that", and I was like What? She made me put my hand on my belly and yes it was a little hard, but it didn't bother me at all. I seriously don't notice my Braxton-Hicks. I thought when I was pregnant with the twins I had NO Braxton-Hicks prior to going into labor. Anyway my midwife told me it is good that the Braxton-Hicks don't keep me up at night, and she seemed stunned I didn't even really notice them! She was like Yeah here comes another one and I was looking at her like you're joking. The thing I MOST have problems/pain with is the pubic pressure. She said my baby is in an OA versus LOA position, so that maybe why? Just wondering if anyone else here is having similar experiences

Wow, yes you are lucky! I feel mine, and they do get me up in the middle of the night sometimes. With DS #1, I remember them lasing 3+ minutes and getting painful towards the end. So far they are 1-1.5 minutes this time, so I guess this LO is going to bake a bit longer!

I think maybe I *would* feel them if my cervical/pubic pressure weren't so bad though. It's like who cares my belly is contracting when even while at rest and on hands and knees (to try and get the baby in a better position) my cervix feels like it's about to explode right on out of there!
