A member asked:
I get braxton hicks contractions when i bend over... is that a symptom of an irritable uterus? they occur very often although without a set frequency.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: Braxton-Hicks contractions are irregular and disorganized contractions of the uterus. They are not concerning. They may be alleviated with hydration and/or rest. If the contractions become more organized or more frequent, then you should see your OB/GYN.
