Braxton Hicks in 3rd pregnancy...um OW!

[seabuckthorn]

Well they aren't gentle like my first put it that way!
Are they meant to remind you of labour?
I don't get many at 27 weeks but the ones I do get are long, hardcore and make me feel a tad sick.

I feel fine (haha) otherwise and no signs of early labour and these BH are sporadic but ow they hurt!
Anyone else had this?

Thanks

*he is head down but not engaged at last MW app. Could he be pushing down?

YES! I'm 39+ 4 and I got about fifteen a day have done for the last 10-15 weeks and they are painful!

Odd - I just came on to ask if I was having them (missed out (!)With my previous 2)!
I'm having period sort of pains and feel a bit ropey. Nothing excruciating but definitely a bit sore.
Am 35 weeks today and wondering what the devil is going on. I more or less ignored until I noticed I was swaying slightly - which put the fear of God in to me!
Saw MW Thursday and all fine. Baby was down but not engaged.
Are these the famous bh's I never noticed before!
