Braxton Hicks at 15 weeks???

Hi everyone,

I am 15 weeks pregnant with my 3rd and for the last week I have been experiencing what feels like braxton hicks. Its just a slight tightening (like what you get after DTD). I have been getting this feeling while just sitting still, or walking around. Is this normal? Should I get checked? My next appointment is in 5 weeks time.

TIA

I think they are fine, I was also feeling mine fairly early with this pregnancy. I think at about 16-17 weeks as well. If they are painful I would probably call your dr/midwife just to make sure.
