Do these come earlier, more regular and more painful with subsequent pregnancies?

Can't say I felt them at all with DD1 and DD2. A bit in the night with DS1 but am now 30 weeks pregnant and they come on and off all day and night and sometimes I have to stop what I'm doing (been having them since about 22 weeks).

I think they get more common. I'm 25 weeks in with DC2 and I've been getting them lots. Never really had them with the first. They pass really quickly with me, but I'm definitely having them!

PS - hope that helps..!

Yes it does thanks Millguff.

DS is only 12 months old too so I was wondering if it it because I'm pregnant again so soon.

DP said to call the midwife but I told him I would ask mumsnet [grin. Don't think he was too impressed!

Yes they do. Had them since 24ish week this time round and they are definitely stronger than with DD

LOL at doc's face at mention of MN. This place truly is a Godsend - and I have a lovely GP and midwife.
