Re: Braxton Hicks or Hiccups

[Guest guest]

From what I know BH contractions feel like a tightening in the

uterus. Women start getting them around 20 weeks or so. I don't think

I felt them yet, but boy, was my uterus hurting today! Like a big

hard ball being rolled around inside. Must be round ligament

stretching or something of that sort.

Hi Elle! I have had tons of hiccups and I have experienced a few

braxton Hicks. The braxton hicks feels like a muscle contraction and

your belly gets tight, many times above the belly. Hiccups are like

little tickles or taps that happen every few seconds continuously. I

was up last night because my little one had the hiccups on and off

all night! Poor thing!

Take care,

Hi Elle,

BH contractions are painless tightenings across the abdomen. I had a

ton of them with Daisy, starting at 13 weeks, which is way earlier

than normal for first pgs. You should be able to feel them, and they

aree no big deal unless there are more than 4/hr and don't go away

with a glass of juice and an hour on your left side. (I had 8 in one

hour and thought I was going into PTL at 24 wks). I've heard it's

just your body's way of preparing for the real event. Hiccups feel

more like a series of rhythmic little kicks, and they sound really

funny on the monitors.

p.s. Hope the vacation is going well!
