Braxton hicks or contractions

On my second child and there's 11 months between my babies. I can't really remember the contraction pains with dd. I remember them being difficult but can't quite remember the pain.
I've not long got up to pee and I've all of a sudden had these really really sharp pains so much so I had to grab onto something and just breathe which seems familiar.

Is it more common for braxton hicks to be worse if your children are close in age as your body hasn't healed?

They can get worse with each pregnancy. Also braxron hicks are influenced by movement ie going for a wee. Dehydration. Being tired.

Really? Fatigue? :o I knew dehydration. Maybe that's it, I'm exhausted today
