Does this sound like braxton hicks?

A little TMI but I'm so curious that I have to ask lol

Last night DF and I were fooling around and started to DTD - I was having really bad heartburn though so we ended up stopping before any fireworks went off lol

Straight afterwards my very small baby bump got really tight along my lower abdomen - it seemed to be pushing outwards and I could really feel it and was very hard to touch. I couldn't really feel any tightening of my tummy muscles - more the pressure of my uterus pressing outwards against my skin. It disappeared after a few minutes and all went back to normal.

I never felt any BH with DD and have secretly been hoping I'd get them this time around.

Does it sound like BH or something else?

that is exactly how they are for me. I never realised that's what they were until my second pg and I had one when the midwife was feeling bubs position and told me it was a Bh.

Yep I first noticed mine after, ahem, climaxing and my belly would go rock hard and look really misshapen.

Wahoo!! Sounds like it is BH then - I'm do excited that I'm going to experience them this time.

It's not usually a one off right? If you feel them then they continue right through?

I'm so excited lol

I've had BH since pretty early on in my pregnancy and now that I am almost 38 weeks they are still there. In fact I feel them more - not sure if there are more happening or if it is because baby is so big now that there is no ignoring my BH!
