Braxton Hicks At 19 Weeks

miranda - April 25

hey, I'm wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing.. I've started having pretty uncomfortable bh contractions and I'm only a little over 19 weeks. It's really hard to measure them because I can't feel them with my hand on my abdomen, I only feel them internally, and they seem to go on all day. Sometimes there is a little lower back pain as well. I know they are common, and I had them a lot in my first pregnancy, but later. Can anyone reassure me that they're okay or should I call my dr?

I started getting them at 20 weeks, I'm now 25 weeks. They are fine as long as they don't come on regular basis, like every 5 minutes or they don't get stronger or longer. If youare worried, you should see your Dr.

I STARTED HAVING THEM AT 18 WEEKS AND I AM 28 WEEKS NOW AND I STILL HAVE THEM. THE DOCTOR SAID IT COULD BE FROM DEHYDRATION AND TO DRINK PLENTY OF WATER AND TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THEM AND IF THEY GOT MORE CONSISTENET AND MORE INTENSE TO CALL HIM RIGHT AWAY.

thanks for sharing your experiences. I think I may call tomorrow just to be on the safe side. I hate to call needlessly but it's just hard to know sometimes.
