    I started having Braxton Hicks at 14 weeks (last Thursday) well my OB told me to take Benadryl for them. I've never heard of this. Has anyone else taken Benadryl for BH? What does the Benadryl do? I go in tomorrow, but it's driving me crazy! lol

    I've never heard of that. I had tons of BHs with my singleton pregnancy from fairly early on too. I had thought I was well hydrated, but decided to try drinking more water and sure enough, that helped. I was at work so I wasn't able to laydown or anything like is recommended, but the water sure helped.

    Never heard of it and I work in the Mom/Baby Unit. FLUIDS and more FLUIDS are all that really help BH. Good luck!
