Im 31weeks pregnant and after sex i've been getting the worse braxton hicks, they hurt really bad should i stop having sex+?

Complicated: Has this happened with other pregnancies? Is everything normal so far in this pregnancy? Some doctors feel that sex late in pregnancy can start real labor, and you sure don't want that at 31 weeks. Having sex is a very personal decision, and you have to decide for yourself what is best. It may be easy to stop, and that should lessen the intensity of the braxton hicks.
