I was shopping again when this happend. I was walking around the store (i am 6 months pregnant) and my back started hurting I was like hmmmm thats weird right in the middle of back then it seemed to travel around to my stomach and right when I was checking out. I was trying to get out of the store my stomach was cramping so bad i almost had to sit down then i started getting hot i left and got into my car and i felt better. then one more came back like 5 or 10 minutes later. Then it was gone. What was that? could that been braxton hicks contractions.l am a small women I am six months and I am just barley beginning to show.

back pain is normal at this point. it could be braxton hicks contractions the baby could have hit a nerve, pressure from the extra weight

That used to happen to me. I had to be pushed around sea world in a wheel chair one time they got so bad. They are just braxton hicks... but I would let you dr know so that they can check on everything to make sure it is all going normal. Due to that happening I was told I was not allowed to exercise unless I was in a pool. I am also a small girl and the weight was too much. Good luck

You probably over did it if yo were shopping for a while. But Braxton Hicks are not regular. But you should lay on your left side and relax until it quits. if it doesn't quit and becomes more regular you should go to the Dr.

yes those were braxton hicks contractions..most people dont know that while you are pregnant your uterus contracts throughout the WHOLE pregnancy to get ready for birth..im 8 months pregnant and have about 2 a day..doc says its normal...but if u get more than 5 in an hour u gotta get yourself to the hospital

this sounds like braxton hicks they can come quite regularly for about an hour or so then go away. if the come again and get stronger and more regular you should get checked out by your doctor/ midwife.

It could be braxton hicks. I would mention it to your OB at your next apppointment or if it gets any worse.
