Braxton hicks???

[MrsMarrioo]

Hi,

Hopefully not TMI!

So I'm 27+1 and last night I had 3, what felt to be like tightenings and suddenly became all hot and bothered (they were pretty crampy but I've had nothing since). I was in the bathroom at the time as my stools have suddenly become loose which is unusual for me as I'm usually the complete opposite.

I then fell asleep on the sofa and around 3am woke to go to bed and ended up in the bathroom again (no tightenings).

Has anyone had this? Possible braxton hicks maybe? A stomach bug? Baby is moving around as normal absolutely fine and no loss of any sort. It's left my tummy quite tender/sore this morning. I didn't experience this when pregnant with my son.

Just looking for some relatable experiences! Thank you x

Could you be dehydrated? To be honest anything like that you've not had before I'd get checked out to be on the safe side but it's probably Braxton Hicks as they start much earlier with second babies than first.

I don't drink enough water to be honest with you. So there's a possibility.

I've tried ringing triage for advice, I can't get through to them. I also haven't got time to be sat in there for 6 hours unfortunately. The only thing giving me comfort is that she's still wriggling around as normal and I just seem to have a tender/sore tummy.

I never had braxton hicks with my son so it's a completely new experience. X
