Hi Ladies

Did anyone else start getting BH quite early? I have been getting them for the past couple of weeks. (I am currently 17weeks). This is my 2nd pregnancy, and I remember getting them heaps last time - they drove me mad, I get them really strong, and they can be quite painful.

I can't remember what point they started last time. And forgot to mention it when I was with my midwife.

Can anyone tell me what stage they started to get them?

Cheers

I think I was about 23 weeks when I started feeling them, this is my first pregnancy. Not sure if you can start getting them earlier with subsequent preggies, maybe someone else knows.

I started gettting them at only 14 weeks when I was pregnant with Emily. I got them quite often and quite strong too.

I was about 15 weeks this time. Typically speaking, they start almost immediately but it takes a while for mums to feel them. With subsequent pregnancies, you know what to look out for and they are often picked up earlier.

I felt them at 16 weeks last time, and this time it was a little later... about 18-19 weeks I think.

On the plus side at least part of me is toned
