hi all, I'm 33 weeks and have been having what I think is Braxton hicks since I've been 4 months pregnant. at the moment I get them twice a week and they double me over in pain. [s[e
This is my second child, never had them the first time.
They last for about 10-15 mins and they make me sick. Sometimes I can prevent them by relaxing and breathing or stretching but otherwise I have to breath through them.

I don't know what to do with myself when I get them.
Has anyone else experienced the same? seeing the midwife Tuesday so will tell her but meanwhile....is this normal?
