Is it normal to have this many BH??
Hi all, Just a quick question about braxto hicks contractions (you'd think i'd be an expert by now lol) can too many harm the baby, and how many is normal?
The reason i ask is that the last week i have been having heaps! Sometimes maybe 8-10 an hour! I know they are BH because i got them constantly with DS and i've been getting them since 14 weeks with this one. They aren't painful as such but they've picked up a notch lately and can be quite uncomfortable. They do slow with rest etc but they never actually stop (they even keep coming throughout the night)
Anyway i'm used to getting them a lot but i'm just wondering if too many can stress the bub out? Sometimes i feel like they are just coming one after another! I know this all means my body is getting ready for birth but sometimes my tummy is soooo hard that i worry about bub.
Has anyone else experienced constant very frequent BH towards the end of their pregnancy? I read somewhere to call the Dr if you have 6 or more an hour but sometimes i have way more than that! I've mentioned it to my Dr (some days i've been getting BH all day at 10mins apart) but she doesn't seem concerned at all.
What do others think? Bub is still kicking and moving all the time (very active bub!)
