Be happy that you got braxton hicks, or practice contractions. I am 35 wks and still haven't had them that I know of. I am not getting a lot of the normal symptoms, like back pain or anything. I have the constant fear that I am not even gonna know right away when I go into labor. I know that sounds kinda crazy but I can't get it out of my head. I know it's different for everyone, but the unknowing is driving me crazy. Then on top of that I am so excited, anxious, and scared all at the same time. These last few weeks seem to be dragging. :)

My doctor told me when I was 26 weeks that I should start braxton hicks contractions. So yes, don't worry about it too much but if the pains don't feel right then trust your instinks.
