Very possibly contractions, my contractions started small and built over time. Keep an eye on them and rest as much as you can, in case it is labour starting! Xx
I keep asking people this question and everyone says you will absolutely know the difference and know when it's a proper contraction 🙈 My midwife also said if it's a contraction it will take your breath away. Xx
Hard to say depends how intense they are. I get some bad braxton hicks. With contractions they will just get gradually worse to the point you won’t question it xx
