*Lolapalooza* Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Does it look like shes holding her breath or actually actively pushing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizT Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 (edited) My personal experience with Braxton Hicks contrations was just a hardening and tightness of the uterus momentarily which felt a bit odd and then passed. IMO it didn't feel like an actual contraction. Edited December 18, 2010 by LizT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epi Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 her stomach gets really hard and she'll close her eyes until it passes but there's no pushing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizT Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 her stomach gets really hard and she'll close her eyes until it passes but there's no pushing. Sounds like Braxton Hicks It's all part of the uterus toning for the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hilaryo Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I haven't noticed braxton hicks contractions with bitches during pregnancy but then I haven't felt for them. No doubt they occur just like Liz mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
