Braxton-Hicks are 'false labor', it is a way to practice contractions that get your body ready for your baby’s arrival. Signs you’re having Braxton-Hicks contractions include: -contractions that come and go -contractions that don’t get stronger or closer together -contractions that go away when you change position or empty your bladder Real contractions happen when your body releases a hormone called oxytocin, which stimulates your uterus to contract. You can tell that you’re in true labor when the contractions are evenly spaced (for example, five minutes apart), and the time between them gets shorter and shorter (three minutes apart, then two minutes, then one). Real contractions will also get more intense and painful over time.Some other signs when it is a real labour contractions: - You will see "bloody show", mucus plug drops out - You may feel like the baby has “dropped” lower in your belly - You may experience fluid leaking from your vagina (water breaks) http://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/braxton-hicks-contractions-vs-real-contractions#2 For me, I downloaded smartphone Apps e.g. contractions tracker to track my pain interval. When the contractions are evenly spaced and shorter intervals, I am ready to go to hospital for labour.

Braxton Hicks contractions are irregular. They might go away when you change positions or when you drink a glass of water. Real contractions will get stronger and more frequent with time - they will feel like strong menstrual cramps. If you experience more than four contractions in an hour, you may be in true labour, and you need to get to hospital immediately. Also watch out for other signs like your water breaking or a bloody show. Keep monitoring your baby's movements too - there should be at least 10 movements in 2 hours.
About 10 movements in 2hours, I thought babies do sleep 90% of the day.
Hi. braxton hicks are less painful and can be gone everytime you change position, and is not in regular, and usually felt more in the front. while real labor contractions comes at regular time, and still continues despite position changing or resting, like dysmenorrhea pain 2x, and it last longer. usually felt starting from back moving to the front. talk with ur obgyne as well po. :)
Braxton Hicks contractions are: 1. Not regular 2. Don't increase in intensity 3. Tend to be focused on tummy area 4. Not persistent You can find out more here: http://sg.theasianparent.com/difference-between-real-labour-and-braxton-hicks-contractions/
Braxton hicks is lighter than normal contractions you still will be able to go about your day and they won't be too many at the same time..contractions once they start you'll know because they'll be shorter periods of time in between

You'll know it when it's real labor contractions, trust me. Super painful feeling. Unlike braxton hicks, the pain is bearable and goes away. Time your contractions and tell your ob gyn right away.
