Today iv just been having some mild twinges in my lower back. Not painful but I can feel them. I'm nearly 29 weeks so was wondering if that's a common time for it to start and if that's what it feels like to start with? I didn't a lot of walking yesterday so I'm not sure if it could just be my back getting stiff. Thanks :)

Bump

I'm 29 weeks and have been experiencing braxton hicks for the past week or so- apparently at this stage it's normal. :) However it's not back twinges in my experience (back pain is a separate joy I've discovered!) I was in Tescos when I had my first BH- whole of my bump suddenly felt incredibly tight/stretched for about 20 seconds. Not painful, but very odd! Hope that helps?
