Braxton Hicks vs Contractions?

Hope it has settled for you overnight Vic, that it is just some strong BH due to the ECV and settles down soon.

The tightening and lack of cramping makes it sound like bh, are you getting the back pain?

For me ctx start in my back, I get cramping then my belly contracts.


I had no idea first time either couldn't tell you if I had any it was all so fast.

I have lower back pain, which is constant, as with my belly being very hard and tight, but no cramping so I'm of the thought that it is just BH's. I guess I feel a bit uncertain as I never got the cramping with DD, but that would be because she is posterior and this bub is breech so hopefully I would get it as a sign.

Hope it has settled for you overnight Vic, that it is just some strong BH due to the ECV and settles down soon.

I am hoping that is what it is. It went on all night was still struggling to sleep at 4:30 this morning, but I got a few hours after that, but as soon as I moved/rolled over, or got up, it contracted straight away

I've taken Nifedipine first thing this morning, and will do again later in the day and hopefully that will improve things.
