Hi girls! I’m in some need of some advice and am messaging my midwife tomorrow, I’ve been experiencing some sharp pains in my sides and in my back but they’ve been so bad I’ve had to stop and I’ll even express how much pain I’m in. I don’t know wether this is braxton hicks or not?

Generally if you change position BH should ease off. Is there a pattern to them...how often and how long they last? Can you talk through them?

I’ve just messaged you x

If in doubt hun contact your maternity unit at the hospital. They can do a swab to see if you will/are in labour I have had it done, they would rather you call especially when you are in pain. X

How many week you are ?

I’ve never had Braxton Hicks that were sharp pains, always a tightening feeling that only lasted about 30 seconds . But that’s just me! You should call doctor to be sure :)

Round ligament pain is what that sounds like to me. Sharp pains.. stops you in your tracks. Super common! And it sucks. They will pass

Yeah it’s can be Braxton Hicks , some pregnant women get Braxton hick as soon as the second trimester starts Nd you 27 weeks so yesss it’s can be the hicks
