Braxton hicks during and after sex...

I'm 30 weeks and we are 'doing it' maybe once or twice a week.

However, the past few times it has caused SEVERE BH. Last night I was genuinely worried I was going into labour after it.
It would be great if I was 39 weeks, but not 30 Sad

Does this sound normal or should we discontinue intercourse?
I really don't remember this on my other pregnancies.

I feel fine this morning - no BH and baby moving as usual.

I would be waaaay too embarrassed to ask a midwife Blush

I should say, before it too - whilst we are getting in the mood Blush

Yup does happen. Not nice.

I read somewhere that when you have sex your uterus contracts even when no not pregnant. I think it was something like if they are regular and still having them regular an hour or so later get checked. Iirc.
