Sunday evening shortly after our father's day meal I was starting to feel a little crampy but assumed it was indigestion. Whenever I woke during the night I would have the same discomfort. Monday I laid around all day because I kept having cramping, but it seemed to be above the baby so I thought maybe it was something else. When things didn't settle down by evening we decided to go in and get checked out. I was having contractions but they were not doing anything to my cervix which is good. They did a couple tests, one which said I was not going into labor and sent me home. Today has been a little better although if I am on my feet very long (like 15 or 20 minutes) I start to get crampy again. The hospital said lots of things can cause non-labor contractions, sometimes you never find out why. I am hoping this will pass soon so I can at least keep up with the daily house-work. I have several good friends in the area and my mom-in-law about an hour away that have offered any help I need, hopefully I won't have to take them up on it, but I am glad to know they are there even though they are quite busy themselves.
So even though this isn't the best thing to happen in a pregnancy, the baby is still where he/she belongs and appears to be doing just fine. I have soooo much to be thankful for.
