braxton hicks at 14 wks?

[findingmyself]

i think that ive started braxton hicks already

Definitley possible. Especially if this is not a first pregnancy! I started getting them around 19-20 weeks with my first (full term) pregnancy!

I started getting them around 13 weeks this time!! Just consider it practice...I had horrible BH the whole time with DJ and a relatively painless 5 hour labor.

I started them really early.. like 10 weeks this time. 4th pregnancy.

well it IS possible but if I were you Id ask your midwife/ob kwim? we arent MDs kwim?

Just to be on the safe side..

With #3 I started mine at 16 weeks, so its possible.. Just ask your Ob to be on the safe side!

They started earlier for me with each pregnancy. Not as early as 14 weeks, though, I don't think. Like Jenn said, mention it to your ob to be on the safe side.

This is my 3rd pregnancy and the first time actually getting braxton hicks. I am now 24 weeks and it's beengoing on for about 3-4 weeks, very strange feeling. I am high risk so at first I started freaking out thinking something was very wrong. Thankfully I figured it out before whining to my ob.

I'm prone to bh and I started them around 12 weeks I think? By 20 weeks I get them regularly (several an hour), and by 32 weeks I get them anywhere from 5/hr to every 5 min...VERY irritating...they don't do anything to ME (but if they are frequent enough, they can start to change some people)...docs just said I have an irritable uterus.

Mine started at 20 weeks with Katie, 16 weeks with Dakota, and 12 weeks this time. I've found though that if I don't get at LEAST 64 oz of water a day (plain water I mean, not just liquids) I get more of them. I too have an irritable uterus.
