Hmm.. I have always had a lot of BHs towards the end of my pgs. The only thing I have heard is to make sure you are hydrated.

I am due early Feb. with my second and I have been having them, on and off since last night. I didn't know whether or not to be worried!

I had a few about a week, or 2 weeks ago? They actually went on for about 2 1/2 hours but they weren't bad at all, just very mild. Someone told me here that they start earlier with subsequent pg's. I know mine were because I'd done too much and didn't drink enough water. I had a couple of them since then but none for probably a week or so. I'll mention to my doc when I go in next week.

I think being a little dry/overtired probably contributes to them.

I have no idea too be honest, I do know that they will tell you too drink loads of water, and stay Hydrated. I drink at least 2 liters of water a day , I am trying too avoid what I dealt with my last pregnancy. I know my girlfriend who just had her 4th, had them very early on in her pregnancy,just cannot remember how early.
