Aww mama, yan ang Braxton Hicks, super common na yan sa 39 weeks, pero nakakamanghang talaga lalo na first time mom ka pa! Pero since closed pa ang cervix mo at walang discharge, it sounds like labor hasn't started yet, kaya best na mag-follow up ka with your OB once more or mag-text sa kanya about the frequency ng pain para sure, sometimes they want to monitor you closely na lang this close to your EDD. Marami sa amin na friends na kakalike mo, nagsuffer din ng ganyan weeks before actual labor, pero it can get intense so better safe than sorry talaga! Breathe through it mama, you're almost there, Dec 15 is so close na!
