Can braxton hicks be detected on a fetal monitor?

[CrazyLady]

I know they can be seen with ultrasound but not sure about showing up on fetal monitor

lol, yeh, im just wondering if i may be experiencing them at the moment. I dont think ive had any as of yet, and im not too sure exactly what they feel like, whether theyre higher or lower, as the pains im experiencing are higher near my stomach. Im just wondering if i do go in and see a midwife, whether they can tell me what these pains are.

Have a lie down.... if the pains drift off... braxton hicks... if they stay the same, or intensify, early labour.......
Your middie will be able to tell you and ease your mind too babe....
