38 Weeks 4 Days Pain

Hi Mummy, Need some advise. Currently i'm at 38 Weeks 4 Days. I start to feel the braxton hicks pain since lastweek but if i do anything like house chores, cooking it goes away... But today the pain come n go but it gets stronger then usual.. No signs of waterbag or bleeding... Is it normal to feel the pain double as days goes by?

Braxton hicks should not feel painful at all. It's just a very uncomfortable, tightening feeling. Normally comes and goes. My guess is you're having a contraction. Pls do time your pain interval. If it gets too intense and very frequent like every 5-10 mins then it's better to head down to the hospital. Not every pregnancies ends with a burst of the waterbag or bloody show. Most, only with contractions. You may want to call the hospital first and let them know that you're feeling pain so they can prepare for your arrival.
