Painful Braxton Hicks?

[Ange80]

This is my second baby and i didnt get any braxton hicks at all with the first one so its all new to me.

I'm not worried about going into labour as i have a feeling the baby is a long way off coming.

This is the first time though that they have been painful, they have never been painful before this.

Hi Ange
for some women Braxton Hicks can be quite painful. Sometimes walking can help to ease them but this can be a little difficult due to the pain. If it is really bad a couple of panadol may help

I've had an increase in Braxton Hicks over the last 3 weeks and they have become more intense as time has passed. I've gone from having them in the evenings to pretty much any time of the day. It's funny but I have started to get used to them even the painful ones. I have found walking, laying down and warm showers helpful in coping with discomfort and pain.
