A few weeks ago I started having Braxton Hicks contractions every once in awhile. Maybe a handful in a day. At first it was sort of amazing. Another serious dose of reality… yes, this wee babe is going to show up here pretty soon. However, in the last two days it’s started to feel like Braxton Hicks contractions are controlling my life. Sunday night I was almost ready to call my Dr. because I felt like I was having too many, but I lay down and they went away. But as soon as I got up yesterday morning there they were again. They subsided during the day but then at about 6pm started again. My Dr. told me that if I have more than four in an hour I need to call. Between 6p and 9p I had about three an hour. I didn’t call the Dr. because again if I was able to lay down they went away. I’m 31 weeks prego this week and have a feeling that this is just the beginning of my relationship with Braxton Hicks.
