do your B-H contractions come on (stronger) when baby moves?

26 week preg....mine seem to come along predominantly hand-in-hand only when the baby moves

I feel a real tightening of belly and then there start the movements

;)

I don't tend to get B-Hicks at other times...most odd!

Hi there. Am just bumping for you as I am 23+2 and don't know if I get braxton hicks yet. I suppose I would know if I have had one! xx

hi bumbly, im almost 26 weeks and last week i was posting about my 'rigid bump'. only to find out that they are BH!

i get them, as the ladies who answered my post said, when im tired. and sometimes when i eat loads. only once i remember getting them and the baby kicking at the same time. the answerers also said dehidration can cause them.

thanks jabuti

am drinking water as we speak!

i however always seem to only get them when the bump is very active

how odd - kicking must be a kind of stimulus for the uterine muscles...
