BH at night, worse when lying on back??

[mama2moo]

I get what I think are bh at night, every night that stop at around midnight.

Last night I lay on my back for a while to see what happened and it was agony. It took ages for me to roll over and once I was on my side they were back to normal.

Im due today BTW. Could it be my muscles pulling from the weight of the baby or just strong bh?

Ps Im not going to try it again Just wondered what it is.

Bh's are not painful. If you are in agony you should call the hospital and get it checked out though if the pains go away when you change position, you are definitely not in labour

I had contraction with DD2 that were worse when lying and melted away to BH when I got up ... for 3 nights and days before she was born.

My braxton hicks have been dreadfully painful for weeks. I've been checked for everything going and it's just me. They feel like the start of labour with DS.
