  • Hey ladies
    I hate to disappoint but I had quite painful braxton hicks from around 20 weeks last pg and went 8 days overdue!!! Is def a good sign for labour when it does happen if they are nice n strong now! Just not sure if bh and baby coming early are related - maybe just me, practically needed dynamite to blast baby out!!!
