    I have had this too darl since about 2 weeks ago.. I was told it was just braxton hicks contractions.. apparently they get a bit more full on closer to your date to prepare your body for the real thing.

    Yes thats what the doctors told me too. I have been getting braxton hicks since January but they have never been painful.

    It feels all new to me because i did not get braxton hicks or anything like this when i was pregnant with my daughter i just went into labour with no signs with her.

    Hi Ange
    I would say that they were Braxton Hicks. Don't believe people who say that Braxton Hicks are not painful, for some women they can be painful enough to stop you in your tracks.
