While Braxton Hicks contractions are generally harmless, there are certain situations where you should contact your healthcare provider:
- Frequent Contractions: If you experience more than four contractions in an hour before 37 weeks of pregnancy. - Painful Contractions: If the contractions become painful and more intense. - Other Symptoms: If you experience other symptoms such as vaginal bleeding, fluid leakage, or a decrease in fetal movements.
