I was feeling Braxton Hicks contractions from the week 28th onwards especially while walking. Now im at 38th week and i wonder how does it feel like to have real contractions :) thank you guys for the cool vid. U r the greatest ❤️
Hi there Samira! 😊 Thanks so much for your lovely feedback!! We are very happy to hear that you find our video helpful!! 😊❤️ By the way: we have also recorded another video on real contractions. Maybe, you find it helpful too? ruclips.net/video/vWG6GVOyf1g/видео.html 😊 All the best for you and your baby!! ❤️
I'm 36 weeks with my 3rd baby and my experience with braxton hicks contractions have been different each pregnancy. In my first, they didn't start until about 2 weeks before I went into labour. They felt like low sudden hardening of my belly which came in the afternoons and only lasted about half an hour. Second pregnancy they started a few days before labour and were very mild. Bearly noticeable In this pregnancy they started around week 23 and feel like a cross between hardening in my belly, like I ate too much, and cramping from exercise. At this point they are becoming more frequent and much stronger as my baby also uses and rolls in reaction to them. They usually happen when I am sitting down so my method of relieving them is to change position or take a bath.
Hi there 😊, thanks SO MUCH for sharing this with us! 👍👍 This is really helpful because it basically shows other expecting mothers how two pregnancies are never alike and how Braxton Hicks contractions can be different across multiple pregnancies. And this right there is the biggest challenge for us: creating content which apples to ALL women. It's almost impossible! 😫 Again, thanks so much for sharing!! 😊
I think my question is irrelevant for this particular video .... But I have a doubt please make me clear.... According to my scan report my placenta position is posterior.... Is normal delivery possible for me ... If at all it is difficult is there any particular exercise for that to make easier ...?
Hi there 😊, posterior position of the placenta simply means that it is attached to the back wall of the uterus, i.e. the wall close to your spine. However, that does not mean that you cannot have a normal vaginal delivery. In very very rare cases, a posterior placenta may extend downwards into the lower part of the uterus or cervix. When that's the case, it COULD become a problem. But again, it's unlikely to happen and your doctor would have probably already mentioned it... By the way: unfortunately, there are no exercises that could change the position of the placenta. There is really nothing that you can do about it... We hope this helps! 😊 All the best for you and your baby! ❤️
I am having lower right side belly pain which is very intense. Often starts after i wee or poo. I cannot stand or walk through it. Need to instantly sit. Once i lie down or relax for few minutes the pain subsides. Walking or movement makes it worse to the point i hardly breathe. Sometimes it is very localized. And sometimes it radiates towards upper belly, middle of the belly and to the back. I am 38 weeks pregnant. What could it be?
Hi there! ❤️ It's difficult to say! First of all, if it were true labor contractions, then they would not go away when you lie down and relax. It could be that it's false contractions, however, it seems like the pain you are feeling is pretty intense! There could be many other causes, such as pelvic girdle pain. However, we really recommend talking with your doctor about the pain! The safest approach would be to have a checkup and to try to find out where the pain is coming from. Don't worry though, most likely it's nothing serious! But it's always best to double check with your doctor! We are very sorry that we cannot be a better help here! 😬 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby! ❤️
Hey, I have more of vaginally pain and unable to move with that if I sit or sleep and I have slight wet panty. Is it I am near to my labor? Please let me know
Hi there 😊, please note that unfortunately there is no reliable way to tell if your labor is close or not. Sometimes, women experience these signs for a long time without going into labor. You may wanna look at these signs though: ruclips.net/video/v_nPARnW1e4/видео.html. They are normally signs that labor is REALLY close... That said, if you regularly have wet panties, it COULD be a sign that you are leaking water. Here is a link that you may find helpful: ruclips.net/video/B5H-llfoHQ4/видео.html We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Hi there 😊, yes, it is normal. 😊 Not every woman experiences Braxton Hicks, or lets put it this way: not every woman FEELS Braxton Hicks. In some cases, they are just very very mild. However, for your peace of mind, we recommend talking with your doctor. It is always the best thing to do, in case you have any doubts about anything related to your pregnancy... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Hi there 😊, it's unlikely that it is labor. When you are in labor, the pain would be consistent, also during the day. Moreover, the contractions would come in certain intervals and the gaps between them would become smaller over time, if your labor progresses. By the way: the easiest thing to do if you want to check if you are in labor or not, is taking a warm bath (20min). If the pain improves, it is unlikely that you are in labor because when you are in labor, nothing that you do will make the contractions go away... We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby! ❤️
My question is,I have already seen the symptoms of labour,which is the bloody mucus,and I have not started feeling the real contraction ,pls is it normal?but I have been feeling the braxton hick
Hi there Maureen! Yes, it is totally normal! 😊 Although these signs (like mucus plug discharge and an increase of Braxton Hicks contractions) are commonly known as "early signs of labor", they are not a guarantee that you are going into labor any day now. Some women see these signs although they don't go into labor for another couple of weeks. We talk about this more in this video: ruclips.net/video/AVMCpC3vpPI/видео.html. Maybe you find it helpful too! 😊 All the best for the upcoming delivery, for you and your baby!! ❤️
@@CareAboutLittleOnes thank u so much,now I am not afraid anymore.my other question is,my midwife keep complaining that my cervix is not opened yet,that by now I should be on 2cm,that since my cervix is still tight that CS is the next solution since am on my 39weeks.should I accept that or I should wait little more.
Hi there! 😊 Normally, what they do in case of high blood pressure is, they regularly monitor it during labor. As long as it stays within a certain range (which depends on the doctor), they won't intervene. If you go over it, they may suggest to assist the delivery with instruments (such as forceps). And in very very rare case, they may suggest a C-section. But it very much depends on your hospital and doctor! So the only thing you can do is talk to your doctor and as them how they normally handle such cases at their hospital! All the best for you and your baby! ❤️
I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and i had contractions at night. I felt contractions both my lower abdomen and back. They didn't go away by changing positions. They lasted for few hours and then stopped. Two days later i had the same way of contraction and again stopped after few hours. I didnt feel like it gets intense.
Hi there 😘, those COULD be contractions that women often experience around week 36 and which help the baby engage in the pelvis. HOWEVER: it's a little bit early for those. Therefore, we would definitely talk with your OB or midwife about it! It's always better to make one call more than required! Thank you! We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Hello i am now 32 weeks pregnant. I always feel like there's something to burst in the lower part of my uterus everytime I walk for too long or ride a motorcycle. Sometimes I also feel this when the baby moves too much. I can't really tell if it's Braxton Hicks or what is this.
Hi there 😘, please understand that this is something that we cannot tell you. Only someone who knows your pregnancy case and who can palpate your belly is able to tell you that, such as your doctor! We can think of many harmless reasons why you experience what you experience. However, only a doctor can confirm what it is that you experience after a throughout checkup.... We are sorry that we cannot be a better help here... We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
I have contractions that are painful, some I even need to concentrate on my breathing, but it fades when I stand up. When I lay down its the worst. They are regular too, but only when I lay down. I'm quite confused whether this is early labor. I think I also lost little bits of my mucus plug
Hi there 😊, the best "test" to see if what you experience are real contractions is a warm bath of 20min. If the pain improves, it is unlikely that you are experience true labor contractions because labor pain does not improve, by anything that you do in terms of movements. Braxton Hicks and pre-labor contractions on the other hand, do improve with a warm bath... The next step is to time the contractions. The best hint that you are INDEED experiencing true labor contractions is when you start noticing that their pattern changes. I.e. they suddenly come in closer and closer intervals, get more frequent and more intense... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby! ❤️
@@CareAboutLittleOnes I went into the bath for 20-30 minutes and had 3 contractions while being in there. The pain didn't decrease, but also didn't increase. I then had contractions all day in different time intervals and lots of pressure. Now on the next day I dont have any contractions at all and also didn't have any the night.
@@smroez4644 Okay thank you! So, either you experience pre-labor contractions. OR: it COULD be that you experience so-called drop contractions.

Hi there Meliame 😊, if you feel better after a hot shower, it is normally a clear sign that what you felt was only a Braxton Hicks contraction. Braxton Hicks contractions normally go away if you change your position or when you walk instead of sit (or vice versa). The best thing to do though is taking a warm bath of about 20min.

This is being hard. 😔 I have been up all night with contractions. I think they are braxton cuz it wont get any stroger. However it wont go away no matter what position I take or warm bath or tylenol. Nothing. And its not "tight" its pain. I im having about 2 each hour. Since 10pmm till 9:30 am. So are this contractions or braxton? 😭 please help.
Hi there Rebekah 😊, what you describe very much sounds like contractions, rather than Braxton Hicks. 😊 In fact, it sounds like you could be in early labor. It's not uncommon for contractions to come like every 30 minutes in early labor. Also, please note that early labor does not always progress in a steady line. In other words, your contractions may not get stronger straight away. Some women are in early labor for days (some even for weeks) until the contractions finally get stronger and come closer together. Finally, please note that every woman experiences contractions in a different way. Some say, it's a "tight" feeling. Some say it's like very strong menstrual pain, other say it's a very intense pain that starts in the back (or on the sides) and moves to the front or the other way round. So, for your peace of mind, we recommend calling your midwife. Talk her through your symptoms and then let them confirm that it's indeed contractions that you are feeling. 😊 But it really looks like your baby wants to finally meet you! ❤️ All the best for you and your baby!! ❤️❤️

Hi there 😘, do you mean that you experience Braxton Hicks over a period of 15 minutes? Or do you mean you experience one big Braxton Hicks contraction that lasts 15 minutes? 🙈
@@heer3602 Oh wow! 15 min is a long time! We would definitely try different positions and see if that makes it go away. A warm bath could also help... Braxton Hicks contractions normally do not last longer than 2 minutes. So, 15 minutes seem like a lot. We would also talk with your midwife about it. We are not saying that there is reason to worry. But maybe it is somehow relevant due to your pregnancy case...?
@@aseafavour792 Unfortunately, we can only speculate here! We recommend asking these questions during your next scan. But if it is really hick ups and your baby is head down, we don't see how you should be able to feel hick-ups "close to your neck"??

We would definitely try different positions and see if that makes it go away. A warm bath could also help...
Braxton Hicks contractions normally do not last longer than 2 minutes. So, 15 minutes seem like a lot.
We would also talk with your midwife about it. We are not saying that there is reason to worry. But maybe it is somehow relevant due to your pregnancy case...?
When i feel these hicks they seem to rise higher up my back sometimes to the neck. What does this mean
Hi there 😊,
that's a good question! 🧐 But most likely, this is simply be related to baby's position.... (?)
My baby is already head down. Does this position cause that
@@aseafavour792 Unfortunately, we can only speculate here! We recommend asking these questions during your next scan.
But if it is really hick ups and your baby is head down, we don't see how you should be able to feel hick-ups "close to your neck"??
