Braxton Hicks


Hey everyone just a quick question..Have been experiening braxton hicks from quite early on, i'd say about 20 weeks, as the pregnancy has progressed theyve become stronger and more frequent however in the last couple of weeks ive had them alot more frequently, they're more stronger and it also feels asif my lower back is really tightening too
I just wondered whether or not this is because baby is lying back to back? When i had a midwifes appointment last Wednesday she said the baby was lying this way so im guessing thats the reason why they feel like they're in my back?
xx

I am not sure on the position thing..I get them just like you do, sometimes they pull at the back, sometimes not..Both of mine are where they need to be, neither one is posterior..

I feel mine worse in my back this time and my doctor did say it was due to baby facing forward instead of facing my back. Apparently the back to back position causes all kinds of back pain.
