Early contractions. Oops.

On Friday I had my 23 week appt. with my midwife and basically got in
"trouble" for not contacting her about the cramping and discomfort I have
been having at work and post work. I truly thought it was because of the
work I do AND being #4 pregnancy. Well, I was wrong. Dang it. After a
horrible weekend of cramping I felt better yesterday, but began having mild
waves of discomfort again today (I'm avoiding the whole contraction term.
heehee) so finally called the midwife to chat. Needless to say I was sent
down the hall from my unit to Maternity for monitoring. Ahhh, resting with
my feet up was heaven I had several while there, but each one was less
than the previous and within a very short time I was feeling much better and
back to nearly normal. Yeah!

So, now I am to check in a bit more often and keep track of what's going on
instead of feigning ignorance. Fortunately everything is great with baby
and my cervix so I will carry on as tolerated.

Anyone else have a very active uterus at this stage?
