Hi IMs 🙂
I’m currently pregnant with my 3rd and I’m noticing a lot more with this pregnancy that I get a lot of braxton hicks throughout the day/night, my placenta is sitting at the front as well so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it? Has anyone else had similar experience through their pregnancy? Does this specifically mean anything?

Nope, means nothing at all :) Your body is just preparing and practising. I also had a front lying placenta and I got them a lot overnight, there were times I thought maybe I was in labour as they were rapid and frequent.
I've had 5 babies, Braxton hicks got more frequent/intense each pregnancy, completely normal
I was going to say this too! With my first I had lhardly any. With my second, holy moly! From 16 weeks they were noticeable and by 30weeks + it was like my stomach was so tight that I could hardly move! They weren’t painful at all though, just super super tending of the muscles!
