A member asked:
Can having a bunch of braxton hicks contractions all through your 3rd trimester facilitate childbirth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
As long as: It doesn't cause premature labor, usually it will have your cervix more ripe when u do go into labor , I am sure your doctor will start checking your cervix at 37 weeks or earlier if you are having too many contractions, and the doc can tell u where u are at.
