I'm 39 weeks on Monday and still not sure I've had any Braxton Hicks... Anyone else?

Me either! I totally can't tell. I'm 36 weeks. Sometimes I get a feeling like a cramp, but it lasts like 10-30 minutes, not the shorter time they suggest for Braxton-Hicks. And it's sort of all over and my uterus doesn't really seem tight. Then there are other odd sensations that might be it, but I really don't know!

With my first 2 I didn't get any at all, or none that were noticeable.
This time though I've really noticed them and they've been quite uncomfortable with my whole tummy tightening and cramping and going rock hard!

41+4 and I deffo haven't had any. Not everyone does though!

I was worrying about this the other day - Im pretty certain I haven't had any either (37 weeks) though sometimes my tummy does go really hard. It just doesn't feel of anything when it does that, if that makes sense!
