Sounds like braxton hicks. Apparently your womb limbering up. I got loads particularly at night from about 30 weeks but went on to be induced! Xx

Hey, perhaps Braxton hicks? I never had them so not sure exactly how it feels but sure this is how they're described xx

Hey, I had this at 34 weeks. The delivery suite had me in and I was in early labour was in for 3 nights on the CTG machine. Mine weren't Braxton hicks because apparently they shouldn't be painful and should go away when you get up. Mine didn't. I also had steriod injections for the babies lungs incase they were born. It's always best to ring the delivery suite. Because they can have you in and just make sure things are okay. I'm now 38 + 2. Still no sign of baby, but having a sweep on Monday and being induced on weds when I'll be 39 weeks due to obstetric cholestatsis. Just get it checked out Hun, doesn't mean your baby will arrive :) xx
