Braxton hicks

I believe I am getting Braxton Hicks but it seems like the tightening is worse on my right side near my belly button. Anyone else? Or is that just completely odd? I thought that hicks involve the entire uterus.Thanks in advance!xx

I'm not sure if it "braxtons" your feeling as I occasionally get very similar feelings like tightening pains across the lower part of my pelvis.

I'm just passed 20wks but the baby is already sitting quite low & I think it could be just down to stretching movements or a few thumps.

It's hard to remember but yes I'm sure braxton hicks are more noticeable and stretch across your whole uterus.

Braxton should feel tight all over, belly goes rock solid :-) you could be experiencing muscle pain or stretching of tummy muscles. X
