Labor and Delivery

As some may know – I was sent down to labor and delivery on Tuesday afternoon. I had about 5 braxton hicks in about 45 minutes. They monitored both contractions and the baby and everything turned out fine. They are not sure what caused the Braxton hicks, maybe dehydration or just the fact that she moves around all the time may make my uterus tighten up a lot… Not sure, but Brad and I are very thankful that our little girl has stayed put!

Side note, she had the cutest set of hiccups while on the monitor and made quite a game out of trying to kick the two monitors off my tummy and then having her heartrate go way up after realizing that she was not going to be able to kick them off. Once again I heard the wonderful news from the doctor that "we have a very active baby" :)
