Braxton Hicks contractions already?!

Friday, April 25, 2008

As I was sitting here all nice and quiet, jamming to music here at work, I felt a tighten in my stomach. I mean, a serious ass cramp. I call my aunt and she tells me to call the doctor ASAP. Turns out I was having braxton hicks contractions. I've been told to monitor them for the rest of the day, drink plenty of fluids and put my feet up. Of course she had to throw that thing in there about not lifting anything heavy but this is me we're talking about. I live by myself and have no one else to rely on all the time. Nonetheless, I'll figure it out.

Other than that, I feel fine. Kendall has been moving all day along. Squirming and stretching out. I guess the space is starting to feel a bit crowded but we have to do what we can. Right now my body is telling me to go home and go to bed. That I am definitely going to do. I plan to put on my nightgown, put in a movie and just doze until my hearts content. Then watch this boy have me waking up at midnight, wide awake. LOL

I do need to remember to talk to K this weekend about ordering the crib and dresser. We can't wait any longer on that. It needs to be done soon and I certainly don't want to wait until the last minute to start preparing for Kendall's arrival. I'm beginning to get anxious and it's driving me crazy. Gosh, I need to look for shower invitations this weekend. Well, next weekend. Gas is too high to drive all over the place. I can also shop online so I might go that route instead.

Well, that's it for now. Let me go get some water and finish the rest of my day so I can head home.
