braxton hicks - not pregnant!

So, after three kids I am pretty familiar with what my body is doing. everything feels different to me. Cramps are cramps, and labor pains and braxton hicks feel different too. So here is the weird thing - tell me if I am crazy. I am not pregnant because my tubes are tied, plus I just had a period a week ago. But I have been ill the last few days with a swollen lower tummy, nausea and believe it or not braxton hicks. I always felt these very early in all my pregnancies and all through them. But how and why would I have these now? It really isn't bad gas I promise! Any ideas?


one more thing, at my last pap it came back abnormal, im waiting for my next test.

Welcome to the board Trish.


Your nausea and bloating can be common symptoms of an ovarian cysts, however the braxton-hicks are quite unusual.
