Braxton Hicks - what do they feel like?

Post by Vickyp »

Hi everyone

Just wondered what Braxton Hicks contractions feel like? I've had a sort of mild tightening feeling in my abdominal area - is that one? Love Vicky

I think thats the one too- sudden tightening- almost as if someone is pushing at you from inside, though not painful at all- only different..
Almost there Vicky- you must be soo excited!

hugs,

Thanks Smita

I am! Can't believe how time is flying by - I am moving house in two weeks so I hope we don't get any early surprises - still got loads to do!
Love Vicky
