    Nope. I had them from 11 weeks with my first pregnancy. A bit later for this one, but I think that's because of the provera I was on in first trimester.

    I'm sure I read somewhere that women actually BH through their entire pregnancies, they just don't feel them straight away. Nothing to worry about!

    I've been feeling them for a good 6ish weeks or so too. I had been feeling them fairly early on with DS's pg too, my midwife told me it's perfectly normal!

    I've been getting them too, I also seem to notice it more in the morning when I'm lying in bed, it feels like a really hard bump, I had them early with DS2 as well and was told it was all perfectly normal and not to worry unless you had painful cramps or bleeding.

    I have had them from 16 weeks this pregnancy, but I'm not the best example as mine turned into contractions a few weeks ago at least there are drugs that reduce those for now

    I wouldnt worry. I have had them this time around from 18 weeks. Baby still in utero, so nothing to worry about!
