[|Human|] I am 28 weeks pregnant and recently experienced light spotting. Since then I have lost my plug and am experiencing braxton hicks every few minutes. My tummy has started to become painful and uncomfortable with the braxton hicks but I know theyre not actual contractions. This is my second baby. Is there something wrong? Should I go to hospital?
[|AI|]  HI, I have read your query & understood your query.  Actually at 28th week. Baby movements increase (in 2nd pregnancy). So the muscles of uterus get stimulated frequently & Braxton hicks contractions increase in number.  Similarly, as the baby grows there is more stretching of uterus .as a result cervical secretions tend to increase.  * Still 2 of your symptoms bother me.  Spotting you had & also pain with Braxton hicks. Braxton's hicks contractions are not painful any time.(it can be some problem with amniotic fluid/ decent of baby down & may cause premature delivery.)  * So I advise you to your treating gynecologist, get examined & start with the treatment advised.  Thanks.
