Braxton Hicks at 19 weeks?

Has anyone else has braxton hicks this early? I'm experiencing a tightening around my lower stomach and think it's braxton hicks. I can feel baby moving and generally well but the last day or so I've felt these tightenings. Anyone else experiencing this?

I had braxton hicks from about 15 weeks in my second pregnancy. Midwife said nothing to worry about. If it becomes regular or painful then contact maternity unit!

Not recently but I had them in my first pregnancy from very early on and regularly. 1st baby came at 36.4. In my second, not a single one. 2nd baby had to be induced at 41.4. Always wondered if there was a link.

Thank you for your replies. Still getting the tightenings but they're definitely better when I'm resting. Going to try and take it a bit more easy from now as I think I've been overdoing it ever so slightly.
