Contractions
When are Braxton Hicks not Braxton Hicks anymore? Ash has been having contractions more and more frequently this past week and it worries me a bit. (Ash, when you read this, and I know you will, I'm just paranoid, there is nothing to worry about, and most of all I love you all the way to God) We talked to the Dr about them but she really just brushed it off like we were ummm oh ya, paranoid. She said if they don't get closer together and don't stop with a change of activity that there is no problem. Well, I see a problem, Ash works her butt off, she can't always just run and sit down for 20 minutes to get them to stop. They happen all the time, at work, at home, walking through the grocery store. Am I just being paranoid, please just tell me I am.

I don't think you're being paranoid. I just think it's concern. Maybe she should try to slow down just a little bit, the 3rd trimester is already hard enough on the body and running around all the time will certainly make it a bit tougher and could be causing the contractions. Did the Dr even check to see if the contractions were causing her to dialate?
Nope she didn't check anything, she all but rolled her eyes when we brought it up. Don't get me wrong, we really like our dr but she's a bit negative at times.
Are the contractions painful, or is it just tightening? How many weeks are y'all now?
Ash said its in between uncomfortable and painful. They are happening more frequently the last few days but no real pattern. She has the next 3 days off so she'll be able to relax and stay off her feet hopefully that will help.
Hopefully today is better for the both of you. I'm sorry, I can be of no help. I thought Braxton Hicks was a Country singer.
Take care of Ash.
