I haven't felt any contractions or braxton hicks.. 34 weeks pregnant is that normal?

Question

I have yet to feel any contractions or braxton hicks.. does that mean my baby boy will be born after his due date or what? I'm nervous that i have yet to feel any..

Answer 1

No it doesnt necessarily mean that the baby will be late!! U have at least 6 more weeks! But when the time is near you will definately know because contractions are definately unbearable!! So please dont rush them!! But if it concerns you greatly then ask your doctor but im sure everything is fine!! I have 2 children and with the first i went the whole 40 weeks which is actually 10 months and they still had to endce me because i wasnt feeling anything either!! So im sure you are ok!!

Answer 2

You probably don't know what they feel like.  It is when your uterus get firm.  It is a muscle-tensing feeling.  It does not hurt.

Answer 3

nah this is pretty normal. some peope dont get them until the day of. count your blessings both Bh and contractions suck.  

Answer 4

I didn't feel any until 36 weeks and then they weren't bad. I just noticed that my stomach would get hard as a rock.

Answer 5

With my first, I never felt a contraction until the day I went into labor.  I had him at 39 weeks.

With my second, I had intermittent Braxton-Hicks contractions from about 35 weeks on.  I had him at 39 weeks 3 days.

I don't think Braxton-Hicks are an indication of when you will go into labor.  I wouldn't worry!

Answer 6

With my first baby I also never felt any until I went into labor.  It is very common with first babies especially.  My second baby I had them the whole third trimester.  Don't worry about it they will come soon enough!  It doesn't mean you will be late!
