At what stage of your pregnancies did you start braxton hicks contractions?

Just curious, I have 2 kids already but I think with the last 2 it was a little later, I am nearly 30 wks and these ones started 2 weeks ago..Just wondering if it might mean baby will come earlier than expected..

Update:

Ohhh great, so its not uncommon to have at this stage, Phew Thank you ..

    No it doesnt mean the baby will come earlier. Mine started when I was 20 weeks so I did some research and apparently they often start in the second trimester. I just had them two days ago again, I am 25 weeks at the moment, I find them exhausting.

    I'll be 39 weeks tomorrow, and I started to notice Braxton Hicks at 36 weeks.
