I've come to realize that I've been feeling Braxton Hicks since 16 weeks. I remember going to my 16 week appointment and telling the doctor it felt like the baby was balling up. Now that I feel it more, it's like she's tightening up in a ball and goes away. I was talking to Noelle and she said it was probably braxton hicks and I realized it was, because I remember the feeling and it comes and goes. It happens usually if I'm walking a lot or working hard or when I have to go pee! So I'm at 22 weeks and I feel like it's too early to be feeling that but I'm reading that it's normal. So I guess this baby is preparing for her arrival already. I can't wait!

Yep! That's BHs alright! I remember those so well. With each pregnancy they start sooner & are more intense. Nice thought, huh? ;-)
At about this time in my pregnancies I felt like I was freaking out because I realized I would be having the baby soon. Sounds like you are there...
I'm with erin, I had them with both kids, more intense with amy than with bradley. With amy they were very strong, unlike anything I"ve ever had. towards the end they were bad, I'd have to stop what I was doing and my stomach literally felt like it was going to explode it got SO tight!

P. S. I also looked at your other site and it was cool. Especially the latest about the anniv. dinner and the couple next to you getting engaged!
the more babies the more BH and also the harder the after birth pains are ...yipee!!!....but the labor should be 1/2 shorter...maybe..
