Anybody not get Braxton Hicks?

[Excited85]

I'm 34 weeks and haven't had any sort of twinges or Braxton hicks at all... Just wondering of this means my body is far from ready for labour or whether some people just don't get them at all?? All my pg friends (all further behind than me) keep talking about having had them and keep seeing posts on here from people having then from 24+ weeks.... Is Anyone out there that didn't get Braxton hicks with their pregnancies?

Apparently everyone gets them but not everyone feels them. I never felt them at all.

DS1 was born at 40+1 and DS2 at 39+5

I've never had them either and I'm 38+2 now. Hopefully it's a good omen for the birth and I won't feel that either!

I was feeling the very same as you until yesterday, at 36+1 they started!! but hadn't had anything until then!!

I gave birth at 36+4 and didn't have any. Just contractions then birth.

If I had them I never felt them.

I didn't have/feel them.

Afraid to say that I very much did feel the contractions with DS.

Though DD was a breeze with ELCS so no idea if I would have has them with her.

I didn't with my dd

I didn't get any with DC1 and he arrived bang on 39 weeks. (Now on DC4 and been getting them on and off since wk17 - oof! be careful what you wish for

I can't remember having them with dd1 aged 10.. I was induced at 8 days over, didn't progress & ended up with a c section.. Dd2 was an elc at 34 weeks no Braxton hicks put that down to being early.
Ds was elc at 39 weeks no Braxton hicks either... Don't think my body was designed for labour & birth!!!

Me! Apparently not everyone does. I'm 32 weeks

I never felt any, and nor did my mum or MIL! Everyone in my NCT class seemed to have them though...

I never felt any BH but when I was induced at 40+8 the monitor showed I was having contractions and yet I was blissfully unaware

I didn't think I had any, but was in for monitoring every couple of days from 41-43 weeks when I went overdue. They were showing on the monitor trace, but I felt nothing, even when it was pointed out to me.

Allbelly I was the same. My dh kept telling me I was having one but I knew nothing about it, for 36 hours,

Bananastar I love your optimism

I never had a twinge, even when I went in for monitoring at 40wks/41wks and 41+2.

DS arrived 40+12.

Never felt as much as a twinge until contractions at 40 + 11.

Oh good, glad it's not just me then! Thanks ladies :-)

Same here, never felt anything, currently 40+5 and noticing some bh this morn, was in with mw there and asked her if it was bh and she said yes you are getting bh. So coyld well have had them but just not knew they were.
