Braxton hicks pains
Hey all, can someone please explain to me what Brixton hicks feel like/felt like to you? I never experienced them with my first, and I’ve never experienced menstrual cramping, as I’ve had people try compare it to that.
I just felt pain that shot all around the lower and upper section of my bump and round to my back, made me throw up in pain…idk if that is a Brixton hock or something else.
I also never went into labour with my first child either…

I wouldn’t say braxton hicks are particularly painful, more like a tightening around your belly, if that makes sense? I’d call your maternity assessment unit and see what they say x
my braxton hicks just feel like my stomach is tight, as if baby is fully stretching out, but theres no pain or anything

Waters broke
39 weeks and after having false contractions and braxton hicks for the last week, my waters broke and don’t really feel any kind of tightening anymore. Baby is moving fine just feels strange to be leaking everywhere.
Everyone said it would be like trickling but it’s a lot of gushes that I wasn’t expecting. Is this normal for most?

Baby girl names
We’ve just found out we’re having a girl 💕 but really struggling with names, my first is Ellie … this time I like things like Margot, Orla, Sofia, Lottie, Sienna … can anyone think of any names that are slightly different but nothing too complicated?!
