Braxton Hicks at 20 wks?

[thomasina1]

Last week I had about 4 continuous hours of a kind of period-pain feeling - felt like my uterus cramping. It disappeared overnight so I didn't bother to ring the midwife but in case it happens again I'd like to know whether this is normal or not! I'm only 20 weeks.

Braxton Hicks can start as early as 6 weeks but is not normally felt till much later.
I had a few at about 14 weeks if memory serves.
If you are worried, just give mw a quick call, that's what they're there for.
