I'm currently 24+4 with dc4. I have been having 'pains' at the bottom of my stomach today. They aren't regular, but am having between 3-4 an hour. I feel a bit 'out of sorts', but baby has been moving around, albeit not quite as much as usual. Would you say these are Braxton Hicks, or should I be worried about them?

Hi loudlass. BH are usually feel like a tightening of your stomach. It's not painful as such but certainly uncomfortable... Usually felt at top of bump. It probably is BH but possibly a bit early to be having them... I'd double check with MW just to put your mind at rest :)

I'd doudble check, but they could well be round ligament pain also.
