Probably going to sound daft but

as pregnancy goes on are braxton hicks meant to be felt really low down? Just curious as I keep getting pains really really low down and wow do they hurt sometimes!!! Thing is I'm only 35wks so too early to be anything other than bh but are you meant to feel them so low?

I've now idea Evie sorry, but i know they happen from the off with pregnancy, although you just don't feel them til later. hth

Hi
It may be the baby head going down maybe giving you pain.

Thanks! Was starting to worry a little bit, especially as the pain is bad today. Got up only to go back to bed for a couple of hours as I kept doubling over but I know it's too early for anything to be happening. At least, I hope so. Much as I want to meet our son I want him to stay put a bit longer.

Hope it settles for you, ring the midwife if it keeps going, just to be sure xxx

My BH were so painful and low - they were even registering on the contraction monitor, LOL x

Yikes! Think that might be what this is though...annoyingly strong bh! At least Dave's cheered up now....he's finally starting work again either tomorrow or Tuesday after 2 months off due to redundancy. Just hope he manages to get the day off for the birth when the time comes.

If your at all worried speak with your MW x

Good luck to Dave hun in his new job x

Thanks, he's been getting so fed up not having a job and feeling like he's not doing what he should but unfortunately it's just one of those things. Got an appointment with the consultant on the 8th so am looking forward to that as we may be able to arrange another scan to check the baby's position and make sure he's not breech as Naj was.
