28 weeks

Only 12 weeks to go! Apparently my body is getting ready for this baby to make his way into the world - I started having Braxton Hicks contractions this week. They made me a little nervous so after tracking them for a day or two, on Wednesday I called the doctor after leaving work a little early. By then I was having about one per hour so the nurse told me to lay down for a while, rest, drink lots of fluids and let them know if they get worse or I have more than 4 per hour. Once I did that I they seemed to slow down thank goodness. Since I already drink 4-5 bottles of water a day plus other drinks with meals, I can't imagine drinking more water though it does seem like the more I drink the more baby boy moves around so it's a good reward!
