Before true labor begins, you may have false labor pains, also known as Braxton Hicks contractions. These irregular uterine contractions are perfectly normal and may start to occur in your second trimester, although more commonly in your third trimester of pregnancy.
When you hear the word contractions, you likely think about the first stages of labor when the uterus tightens and dilates the cervix. But if youâve been pregnant, you might know that there are many other types of contractions you could encounter during your pregnancy. Some women even get frequent, regular contractions throughout pregnancy, meaning they have an irritable uterus (IU). Hereâs what you need to know about this condition, when to call your doctor, and what you can do to cope.
