36 weeks pregnant and having painful bronx contractions pain why is that and from what i read on here it doesn't?

Get checked...: If you are experiencing severe pain you should see your GYN provider ASAP. Braxton Hicks contractions are not supposed to be frequent and should not be significantly painful. Not necessarily you are in labor but you might be having an infection that can be causing symptoms and it deserves immediate attention in this case since it can cause significant complications.
