So it begins
This is my 3rd baby and 6th pregnancy (2 early miscarriages and 1 missed mc at 10wks). With my other 2 children I started having contractions roughly around 20 weeks. With my first I was drawing blood in a hospital so we thought maybe with how much running around I was doing it was flaring them up. Similar situation with my second but I worked for a clinic and started to only check patients in starting around 25 weeks. Well I am a stay at home mom now and thought maybe I wouldn’t have contractions so early. Well I was wrong. Starting this week I have noticed if I start doing “too much” contractions start. Wednesday I went for a big grocery shopping trip and by the time I did that and brought the groceries in and put them away I was having contractions. Yesterday I deep cleaned the house and of course had contractions throughout the evening and my feet were even swollen. Today I BARELY did anything and now I am having them. I did dishes and put fresh sheets on the kids beds, that’s it. YES I am drink A LOT of water. This isn’t my first rodeo. But it feels like I’m not really doing much and they’re starting up. Ugh. It’s gonna be a long 20-ish more weeks.
