Your sentences sound perfectly natural. When we speak fluently, we don't pronounce each word separately. Words blend together, and certain sounds change or disappear to make speech faster and smoother. This is called connected speech. "Wouldn't have" sounds like "wouldn-uhv" or even "wouldn-uh" and "hadn't" sounds like "ha-dn" with a disappearing t.
