Anyone else having stronger Braxton Hicks?

Im 33 and 2 days and honestly since friday (today is monday) they have been getting progressively stronger and more frequent. I can get like 3ish a day. They arnt close enough to say labor but good lord idk if ill still be an April mama the way these contractions coming strong as hell. Im due April 4th. Ontop of that my bowel movements as of today have been loose after contractions + the extra goop that comes out of me once the contraction stops. Im being squeezed so bad😭Yes im staying hydrated to rule out that. Im back to wearing liners even if im just in the house because it sometimes is alot of goop that its so uncomfortable and disgusting to sit in. Baby has also been head down for awhile now between like 20-28weeks when they first told me. I will honestly be surprised if she cooks up longer then April 4th the way I see my body actively preparing. I know some moms see no signs of labor even passed due and I feel like im getting every possible sign that my body is in fact prepping! Incredible but nervous cause nothing is ready😭😭😭 ontop of that im in the process of moving. We shall see

I understand you. And now that you mention it, I’m scared too, because I’ve been having what I think are Braxton Hicks contractions. They feel like cramps, but strong ones, and sometimes they last for several minutes. I don’t know if it’s the same thing you’re experiencing or what it really means, because I’m a first-time mom.

I just hope our babies come when they’re ready and that they arrive fully developed and healthy. I’m also due in April, on April 12th, but I’ve already been having Braxton Hicks contractions. I’m currently 32 weeks and 3 days.🙃🙃
