Christmas Contractions
| Mon, 12-26-2011 - 10:23am |
Anyone else have horrible Braxton Hicks all weekend from being so busy and on their feet so much? This is baby #4 so I'm having tons already but yesterday they were horrible, they were so tight from my back into my stomach that I could barely breath. (they weren't coming and going like real contractions so I wasn't worried) My stomach was also hard as a rock. Hopefully today they don't kick up again because we have Christmas at my parents house today.

I had a few. But I am incrediably exhausted!! I need a few days to recover. But nope I am back to work! This is # 4 for me as well. And the Braxton Hicks contractions are much worse and more frequent with this one.
I have been getting them for a little over a week now. I will have periods where I get them one right after the other for about a half hour and then they go away. I get them in the evening a lot. I've been trying to take it easy as I haven't had this many contractions this early with my other pregnancies that I can remember.
You are not alone! I hope they ease up and you can relax a little now with Christmas over. I plan on having an all out pajama day tomorrow myself!

But I am also SO EXHAUSTED! I've been falling asleep on the couch around 9pm most nights for the past week. I would like to sleep in longer in the morning but Lucas is teething and he's having some rough nights too. What I wouldn't give for a solid 12 hour sleep!
