Stomach pain
One of the common symptoms of Braxton Hicks contractions is experiencing pain or discomfort in the stomach area. However, it is important to note that the pain is usually mild and doesn’t persist for an extended period of time. The pain may come and go and is often described as a tightening or pressure in the abdomen. It is essential to distinguish between Braxton Hicks contractions and real labor contractions, as real labor contractions will become more intense and frequent over time.
