Q: Anyone else not feel Braxton Hicks?

I am just shy of 35 weeks and I haven't felt any Braxton Hicks contractions. This is my 3rd baby. I have a soon to be 5 year old and a 3 almost 4 year old. I also didn't notice much round ligament pain with this one, but I just think it's weird to not be having any Braxton Hicks with just about 5 more weeks to go. Any other women who have experienced this please share your story or thoughts.

Maybe I just don't notice or feel them since my body knows what it's doing and the prior children have already done the hard part of stretching stuff out. This pregnancy has hands down been the easiest on the pain scale. I just hope that this doesn't signal calm before a storm lol Good luck and congrats on your baby and thank you for your response :)

I have the exact same thing,I am 31 weeks with my 3rd and with the first 2 my bh were very noticeable,but this time I only notice my tummy tighten without the intense feeling I usually get,and I don't experience them as often as I have before... Wouldn't it be great if labour is the same? X

I'm 33 weeks and wonder if I have felt them, to be honest only a few, yesterday the midwife was feeling babies position and she said she had to wait as my tummy had gone hard! I suppose this was one lol

I don't believe I've had any, either. I'm 37 weeks today. No cramps, no tightening, just baby still kicking, squirming and floating around in there. :) I've read that it's normal/fine not to have them, and I'm not complaining!
