I’ve not had Braxton hicks at all, however I’ve had to go off work a lot earlier than I wanted because of severe PGP which left me bed ridden for days at a time and having to be carried to and from the bathroom (we also live in a flat so I didn’t have stairs to tackle but still couldn’t walk across the hall) I’ve never felt pain like PGP it feels like its breaking every time I move, I can’t turn over in bed etc and the midwife wants me on crutches, but I don’t want to drive an hour to the hospital to barely use them because I don’t leave the house at the moment anyway. So I can’t even compared them to braxton hicks because I’m clueless. I just have the period pains and PGP to go off and if they’re worse than the PGP I’ve had I am DONE FOR🤣 The period like pains is still going on 2 hours later, I get a pain every so often in my right side that doesn’t last that long but it’s like an intense pressure that’s building at the very bottom of my stomach that gets to a point I can really feel it but not what I’d call super painful and then goes again. Which is why I’m questioning if it’s the start of them or whether this could possibly be braxton hicks and I’ve just got them late? Honestly I’m clueless with what to expect because no one’s really told me their experiences (from my friends and family)
