This video was very imforative. I have been having this feeling since about 30wks, my husband told me it was a BHC but I didn't want to believe him.

Thank you SO much for posting this! I'm 27.5 weeks with my first and felt Braxton Hicks last night--my mom never had these with any of her four kids, and I kind of assumed my pregnancies would all be just like hers...so it was scary...but I guess my body is just different!

[lizseibert2436]

@dw9559 no problem :o)

Whats your view on men participating in birth as opposed to the pack of fags and pacing up and down outside - I think this new age thing with men in the room/pool or whatever, is all about empowerment and attention seeking.....

[lizseibert2436]

@levanter1M really its only fair for them to be a part of it!! and most men want to see the miracle they helped create breathe for the first time and be able to hold them right after they are born.

It does feel like I got to go to the rr but it goes away after a while lately my lower back feels like its getting bumped by I'm guessing the head but then again I have 5 weeks to go almost there :)

Thank you, you did an excellent job explaining the difference I have a 21 year old daughter that was having pain lasting from 5 to as long 15 minutes long and coming every 45 to 53 minutes. Although it continued all day and night, so she is finally sleeping now. I can tell the pain is not as bad as it was cause she is resting but she is still moaning slightly. She turned 28 weeks on Monday. I never had them before so I was unable to relate so thank you, I'll call her Dr. in the morning.
