Are these Braxton Hicks?

[Nellynoo182]

I have an appointment with my Midwife later but curious as to what people think please.

I am 28 weeks. Baby has recently moved to be head down. Kicking me lots in the ribs today when I previously haven’t felt much movement above my belly button.

About half an hour ago I started getting sore belly cramps on the front of my stomach, feel like period pain but quite uncomfortable… the type of feeling that makes you want to curl up into a ball and lie on the floor! The feeling is coming and then disappearing. Are these Braxton Hicks or just baby moving/ wind/ general pregnancy uncomfortableness!

They could be BH but I would start timing them to see if there is pattern.

If you are concerned then call your
midwife prior to your appointment as she may suggest that you go in for monitoring

@Nellynoo182 have they settled?
It could be BH, baby moving, wind or contractions, best to check with midwife if your unsure x

They have settled after lying down and drinking some water thank you! I will speak to my Midwife later to see what she thinks 😊 thank you xxx
