    Hi, I got contractions for an hour or 2 when I was 22 weeks. Very painful and regular but they must've been braxton hicks. I'm due my baby on Monday and I haven't had any contractions since! Try not to worry yourself.

    I started getting contractions at 22 weeks that were extremely frequent and went on daily until about 38 weeks. Eventually had to be induced at 10 days over.

    I know it's really worrying and I had to finish up work over it but in the end turned out that they were contractions that weren't strong enough to cause labour.

    Best of luck, try not worry too much
