NO Braxton Hicks?!

MamaK · May 5th, 2009, 13:31 PM

Is anyone around 38 weeks + and have had NO Braxton Hicks?

I havent had any up til now and just wondered if this is normal. My mw said when the baby's head engages that might bring them on (but my LO's head is still not engaged).

Am I the only one?

Maybe you don't notice them? I get them but they don't 'feel' like anything - I only notice them because my bump goes hard and I can't prod into it!

Ditto, same here. My bump just goes hard.

Thanks ladies!

It could be indeed that I just don't feel them, guess I was expecting to 'feel' something, unless I get them a bit later haha

I dont think I have had them - could have just not noticed. I do get a hard bump from time to time.

Lucky you :>

I get them and they are often brutal, cause my back also starts to spasm at the same time. Wish I couldn't feel them :>
