yep totally normal, and nothing to worry about. I tended to get mine when i was exercising. just experiment with different positions, have a hot bath or massage your tummy. try to breath into it and relax rather than fighting against it - cos that can make it worse.

It will come and go, I've read it sometimes starts at 16 weeks already, Ive had a few, it's your uterus 'practicing' as my doc told me. as long as it's not coming and going like normal contractions should then they say it's normal.



Doc also says you'll know when its really time!! You'll feel the difference...
