Braxton Hicks

Congratulations on your 31-week milestone, mommy! Braxton Hicks rasanya macam perut suddenly jadi keras dan ketat, someone in my mum group described it beautifully, like a blood pressure cuff squeezing your tummy from the top downwards, then releasing. The key difference from real contractions is that Braxton Hicks are irregular, usually go away when you change position or rest, and you should still be able to walk and talk through them without too much discomfort. Do keep track of how often they come and whether they follow a pattern, if they become regular, more painful, or you feel unsure at any point, please do check with your doctor or specialist just to be safe. Wishing you a smooth and comfortable remainder of your pregnancy!
