Sofla is a first-time mom, and her doctor told her about Braxton Hicks contractions, but she doesn't remember how they differ from true labor contractions. How would Sofia distinguish Braxton Hicks contractions from true labor contractions?
A.
Braxton Hicks are usually painful while true labor contractions are less painful due to the hormones that "protect" a woman in
labor from feeling pain.
ОВ. Braxton Hicks will increase in intensity Indefinitely but true labor contractions will only become more painful if the mother is
dehydrated.
OC. Braxton Hicks are the first types of contractions in labor, and true labor contractions are the contractions that occur during the
pushing stage of labor.
OD Braxton Hicks will dissipate with rest or hydration while true labor contractions will increase in length and frequency and will
become more painful as they continue.
