How Does Braxton Hicks Feel Like?

35 weeks now and have read about braxton hicks. However I don't seem to experience or recognise them? How does it feel like? Is it normal to not experience it yet at 35 weeks?

It’s how sensitive you are to the sensation of abdomen tightening. You might be experiencing and not knowing that it’s happening. No worries mummy Braxton Hicks is what I called “rehearsals” for the actual show. ☺️

You ladies are lucky... yhooo... you remember when you were young and getting those painful periods on Day1... thats what it feels like for me. Sometimes they stick around for a good many minutes not seconds before it goes away. Its PAINFUL.

Feels like pulling a muscle except there's no pain and it comes and goes quickly with no pattern. Not everyone will feel it I believe, but you can mention to gynae (they will probably ask if you're feeling any contraction)
