when bh are really contractions? Ive been having a lot of pain lately but am just thinking they are strong BH as I had them towards the end with Lexi that didn't do anything. I called my doctor and he just told me to take it easy until my appointment. Sorry for the dumb question |

I have heard that BH will go away if you drink more water and lay on your left side. if they don't go away or intensify I would call again or go in to be checked. |

BH contractions should stop if you change positions (standing if sitting or lying down if standing, for example). They shouldn't increase in frequency...shouldn't be very timeable. Like Tara said, drink a lot of fluids and rest. I have read that you should call your doctor if you have more than 4 in an hour. |

Glad to hear! And, I always say, when in doubt, always at least call your doctor. At the very least, it will ease your mind. |
