Hi! It could be braxton hicks. I had BH from very early on, about 20 weeks.....I'm surprised that if your OB thought it might be a UTI, why he/she didn't do a urine test? Are you having pain when peeing? UTI's won't hurt baby. I'd get it checked out though because if a UTI is left for a long time, it can end up as a kidney infection, which also doesn't affect baby but isn't fun for you. Good luck hun xx
Hope the results come back normal Braxton Hicks can be uncomfortable. They get a lot stronger towards the end. I thought I was in labour with DD2 at about 36 weeks, but nope just BH. They were that strong, it felt like the beginning of labour! That could have been because it was second time round though.....anyway, what I'm saying is, be prepared for them to get quite strong, but don't stress. They are just preparing your body for the real thingx
