I'm just a little over 22 weeks and this is baby #3. I have noticed a couple of times in the last few weeks I'm having pains like braxton hicks in my lower stomach from about half below my belly button to just above my pelvic bone. It's happened twice when I have been extremely busy with cleaning or the other two kids. Is this normal with baby 3? I havent had any spotting or anything. Could it be stretching?

I started getting braxton hicks at 11 weeks. We actually start getting braxton hicks at 9 weeks, but usually don't feel it until later.

thanks girls! I think I'm going to take it easy. My first two were picture perfect text book pregnancies and this one has been so different I'm not sure what to expect next!

Hi, i'm 28wks with my second and i have been having braxton hicks for wks now and like u it is only when i have been exhurting myself. My doc said to slow down or they will turn into real contractions and i already have caused my uterus to become irritated which is not good at all. So i would suggest taking it as easy as possible but i know it is impossible with other kids, i know my son is 100 mile an hr all the time, i get no rest although i'm supposed to be on bed rest...good luck!
