Ok ive been gettin lots of braxton hicks today, and they seem like alot, and kinda close together... Well about 2 hours ago, they started to get tighter, a bit painful (but im not a baby so it dont really hurt much, just a dull pain), and more frequent. Lol and my sister has been sayin crap to jinx me into going into labor, like " lets make like a baby, and head out" and we(my mom and sis) went out to eat and I got really full and it hurt to sit up straight so I was leaning back and I had one arm up to breath better, and I put one hand on my tummy, and my mom was like "your not going into labor, are you!?". I have a feeling that she might be tryin to come soon. I dont think im gonna make it to september. The doc is gonna start checkin me to see if im dialating at all at my next appt. Im so anxouis/nervous!

I've been getting braxton hicks since about 6 months. Now I am 37 weeks and still no baby. Now they are more frequent but I still can tolerate them. The Dr. Says if you get 4 or more in one hour than go to the hospital.
When are you due?

Ive been gettin braxton hicks since around 20 weeks, im 35 weeks now... Its just that they were happening all day yesturday, and seemed to be kinda evenly spaced apart, and slowly increasing in frequency, and they were slowly becoming painful. Now they are starting to get painful again... More painful than last night
