    tight sore tummy (not braxton hicks)

    So last night I had the sorest tummy, all over. it felt right (like what happens with braxton hicks) but it was sore too.. I couldn't stand up straight (it was a constant pain not coming and going like contractions) I had to walk bent over holding my tummy, I started to get scared and almost called 13 health or something..
    Does anyone have any insight? Should I be worried. It's Coming to the end of the day and my tummy has started getting a little sore, and am starting to worry :-(

    How many weeks are you ? Does it feel crampy as well ? Do you have any problems with your back or pelvis this pregnancy ?

    Sometimes, BH can feel sore, especially if you're overtired.

    tight sore tummy (not braxton hicks)

    My tummy has been getting tight very sore crampy with BH since early on .. Happens more so when I have over done it ,or not drank enough water .. I find it happens more so at night and can get very bad .. Iv even gone to the hossy before to check it wasn't pre labour ..

    yeah hasnt happened since the other night, though the next night i started to get pretty bad BH for awhile but that settled down quickly,

    i hadnt drunk (drank?) much water that day (none infact ) was having endless pots of tea made for me being mothers day and all lol.. i think that had alot to do with it..
    i feel like my body is really failing me this pregnancy.. its nothing at all like DDs pregnancy, im making the most of it but i think i will be glad when hes finally here

    Sounds like braxton hicks to me. At least my braxton hicks have always been very painful like that.
