I didn't have any with my son and had him at 37+6. Think its just one of those things like why one person will get morning sickness and another wont, some get BH some dont!! xx

No BHs does not mean you'll go overdue at all. Some people get them, and some don't

I haven't felt any that I'm aware of, but was on the CTG monitor the other day and apparently I'm having them- they were registering at about 40 on the machine (whatever that means!)

Apparently everyone has them, it's simply the uterus contracting which (according to my antenatal class teacher) happens in everyone - even when not pregnant. Some ladies just don't notice or feel it at all, but that doesn't mean it's not happening! Your body is still preparing just fine, don't worry.

I didn't notice them at all until just after 37 weeks and have only had them hurt (or well, had back pain because of them) once. Even now the amount of times I've had braxton hicks and noticed them can be counted on one hand.
