I have 4 weeks Tom and I've had Braxtons for quite a few weeks now, some are easily missed just tightenings like I'm doing a tummy crunch but without tensing.

Lately I've started to notice period pain like cramps some a little stronger than others along with back ache and loose bowels (sorry tmi).

Hoping I won't have to wait too long now :0)

Hiya

I have 6 weeks to go and am getting lots of braxton hicks. Some have just been uncomfortable but i've had a few nights where i've had period type pains too - midwife said its normal though and just braxton hicks. Don't think bubs is on his/her way yet though - my DS was 5 days late so i'm assuming this baby will be late too. xx

I had really strong braxton hicks from 30-32 weeks but they seem to have disappeared lately and just getting the odd mild tightening now and again. xx

I've been getting some in the last week or so, I'm 36w today with my 1st. I wasn't sure what they were and then they told me when I was being monitored this week that I had a strong contraction in the middle of it - I was like 'oh that's what they are'! I just thought it would be more obvious to me! Oh well.
