Has anyone else been getting braxton hicks contractions this early in pregnancy? I'm really worried as i started getting them at 25 wks with my DS and i went into premature labour with him at 28 wks. They are not overly painful more like mild cramps but i have been getting them every day for the past week. I havent had any other signs of prem labour but wasnt sure if this was normal for a second pregnancy. I have an appointment with the obstetrician next week but not sure if i should see him earlier just in case.
I'm 15 weeks pregnant with #3 and i'm already getting them. I got them around 20 weeks with #2. So for me that sounds normal but since you have a history of prem labour i would be asking your OB just to check on you for peace of mind if nothing else.

DD came early
And i have had BH form 20 weeks they are really strong, take my breath away and i feel nauseated.
Told midwife they didnt seem to care...
I think I may have had some BH on the weekend- I had to sit down to help work through the pain but I had been carrying some boxes of books earlier, so who knows?
Funny, I don't want to take any drugs in labour so god knows how I'll cope
I'm seeing my OB on Thursday, I'll check with her.
i got my first one at 16 weeks.. dont freak about them.. u will find u get them right from the start, hey just become more noticeable as ur uterus grows.
