They were uncomfortable when my stomach tightened but not to the point where I felt any pain. And I could feel my entire stomach tighten, not just one side. </p> <p>Let us know what the doctor says. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/braxton-hicks-1#post-258408 Tue, 14 Aug 2012 14:39:50 +0000 hilsy85 258408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: that's exactly how mine feel--like a tightening all over that's not quite painful but definitely not comfortable, and makes me feel like I have to pee! I get them multiple times a day now. I've heard that dehydration can be a culprit so make sure you're drinking water! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/braxton-hicks-1#post-258387 Tue, 14 Aug 2012 14:26:38 +0000 MsLipGloss 258387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like it could be RLP or BH . . . which totally stink. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/braxton-hicks-1#post-258379 Tue, 14 Aug 2012 14:20:50 +0000 DillonLion 258379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Feel better! You can probably guess that I've been having the exact same thing since we are having the exact same pregnancy and everything. ;)</p> <p>It just feels tight/painful/nauseating all over. Kind of like I need to go to the bathroom but I don't have to go and/or period cramps. Happens maybe 1x a day for me right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/braxton-hicks-1#post-258371 Tue, 14 Aug 2012 14:17:20 +0000 blackbird 258371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>aw feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/braxton-hicks-1#post-258348 Tue, 14 Aug 2012 14:08:31 +0000 mrsjyw 258348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>just past 26 weeks, started having some mild cramps yest, they're back today... :(</p> <p>can't tell what it is...</p> <p>it's more on my left side now... doesn't feel like baby pressure, more like menstrual cramps... def have moments of tightening and then release... not super painful, but def uncomfortable, and i'm carrying low as it is in this pregnancy, so i'm worried.</p> <p>called the doc's office just to make sure it's not pre-term labor signs... </p> <p>wahhhhhhhhhhhh </p>
