Braxton hicks

[ahenderson270]

Hi everyone

I'm 22 weeks today (Sunday) with fourth baby (13th pregnancy) and all day I've been having fairly regular Braxton hicks - definitely not painless but not .. agony .. mostly uncomfortable. I'm starting to niggle in my back too .. I've never had Braxton hicks with any of the others so I'm just not sure what's normal.

Baby rolling around fine regardless

Thanks in advance

I'm 23 weeks with my 4th and have been getting them for past 3 weeks not every day no real pattern just uncomfortable like you never had them before

@Mummylanie3 ahh I see, well as sorry as I am that you're getting this too, it's a relief to hear it's something that just happens x

@ahenderson270 my friend got them all time with her 5th I think as long as there no pattern and not painful it's ok x

@Mummylanie3 they're not sore at all, but I'm definitely aware of them.. oddly though my back is hurting like... a low full ache but as you say there's no pattern x

@ahenderson270 if u get worried at all ring midwife when are u due think we're not far apart I'm due 28th April but will be having a section at 39 weeks

@Mummylanie3 so that back pain has ramped up
Pretty bad, mostly on right side 100% times worse when moving with shooting pains up and down my leg and back .. hello sciatica 😥
