    Question Is it possible to get BH's this early!?

    I know its my fifth pregnancy and all things usually happen earlier the more you have... but I'm sure that I felt a BH just before! My belly felt all weird, and I touched my lower half of my belly, and it was quite hard! Like, still pudgy cos I'm fat, but hard under the fat.

    So can it happen this early or am I strange or going nuts or something......

    I asked the same thing at around the same stage. I didnt have BH with DD but my midwife reckoned that it wasnt BH but that woman are more 'sensitive' at certain gestations and things like that can be felt more easily. Who knows if she's right, but at 12ish & 16 weeks I would get a tightening across my tummy and then a little hard 'ball' area which I assume was baby.

    Yep. All normal. You just know what it feels like, and can identify when it happens. It actually happens all the time I was told by my midwife, it's just that so many women don't know how to identify it.
