Just wondering as i have been seeing lots online to say braxton hicks kick in around week 17 and i need to keep track of them. Im not sure if i have had any or not? I get twinges and pulling pains - is that them? Or dull aches? Im confused Confused

I never had any my entire pregnancy and baby is 10 days old now. I wasn't told to keep an eye on it. I don't think it's something to worry about
