Braxton Hicks feels more like a tightening sensation but shouldn't come with pain. It could be the baby pressing on your tummy, but if in doubt you should check with your gynae for peace of mind.

Will push forward my appointment to check it out with doctor. Hope everything is good during this few days of CNY.

I had one episode of squeezing pain at around 28 weeks, on left side of my belly. I think that's my first (and so far only) Braxton hicks
