Braxton Hicks?

I am 15 weeks pregnant with twins.  I posted this on the mulitples board but figured I would try here too.  Anyone get BH this early.  I got them with DS #2 but not unitl way later.  They aren't painful but my stomach feels like it tightens up.  Concerning or normal???

BH are common in early pregnancy all the way up to delivery. As long as they are sporadic, not regular, and don't have any bleeding it's fine.

I've heard you can get then at only 7 weeks,  I've been getting them a lot at 21 weeks, bad painful ones.

I started feeling them at 16 weeks and my doctors said it's totally normal. I usually only get them when my bladder is over full (middle of the night and morning.)

They can start as early as 6 weeks. I actually just had one a minute ago, first one I have noticed this PG. I didn't notice until 20+ weeks last time.

I've been getting them for a couple of weeks now and as pp have said as long as they are sporadic and you have no bleeding you should be ok. Also make sure you're hydrated well as that can also cause them. It's common to get them earlier after your first pregnancy.
