dear friends,

hope you all are doing fine n enjoying ur baby kicks n movements..

Im 29 weeks pregnant now n had my doc' s appointment yesterday. Baby is doing fine..Movements are good too:-)) but from the past 1 week i have been experiencing lots of braxton hicks contractions..its like my uterus goes tight for few seconds n relaxes, no pain nothing..i used to get them 8-9 times in a day... So i mentioned this to my gynac n he did get worried. He says though braxton hicks are very common but it can lead to pre-term labour if you get them too often..
so girls, i have been asked to take it easy n rest with my feet up most of the time. Im also put on magnesium tabs for 2 weeks just to relax my uterus. im being very positive n hoping for the best. i hope my mild contractions stops completely with the medications given. Now that im in the 3rd trimister i go to see my gynac ev ery 2 weeks. im happy that i will get to see my daughter more often..
so howz everybody doing? The board has become very quiet. i wish every one good luck for this final trimister..!!
luv to ur little sweet babies...



alolika replied. my dear friends,

namita, dont worry, as long as BHC dont come very often they are considered normal. mine had started coming every 30 mins!! anyway, im fine now. i too get back pain at nights n some heartburn too..yak!! I will be starting my ante-natal classes from next week.. looking forward to see what they teach n all... you take care n lotsa love to ur little one:-)

Hey Namita,

Good to know you are doing good... Am not going for nay antenatal classes dear... Am in Chicago, but my hubby travels for work to Rochester,NY and comes home only every 2 weeks for a weekend... Attending classes is next to impossible... So we are gonna do it all by ourselves... Hope all goes well for us...

Hope you all do well too... Take care of yourselves and all the little ones girls...

Love,
Vini :) namita replied. I also visited my doc. on wednesdy. My baby is fine and also kicking much.as u knw my vit.D level was less last time so sm blood tests were taken this time.other things r fine.I m getting heart burn and sm back aches and sm BHCs also.bt these pains r only for 1 minute.My tummy becomes hard sm times bt i think its normal.
As vini said u don' t need to be worried.just relax and take good amount of rest.every thing will be all right.Good to hear that u can see ur baby every time u visit dr.Here in AUST. dr don' t do any scan untill they found any reason.So just enjoy it.I will also go to visit dr. in two weeks time.
One new thing is that I m attending antenatal classes these days.these r interesting. Hv u joined any?
Good luck and lots of love to ur little one. Vini replied. Hi Alolika,

Good to hear from you... I regularly read posts on this forum and I used to wonder where all you girls are... Anyway good to hear from at least you and Vidhi... And am happy to hear that you both and both your babies are doing good... My girl is also pretty active... I get some slight pain in mu uterus sometimes but no tightening, so am guessing it is not BHC...

You don' t worry, nothing will happen to you soon... You will deliver a full term healthy baby... I will pray for you dear... Just be positive and be happy... Take good care of yourself and rest as much as possible...

Love to your little one :)

Vini :)
