Hi!
I'm 33 weeks 1 day today & now will go every week to my doc for checkup.
MY baby girl is very active & I've started having Braxton Hicks contractions which my doc said were normal.
I'll be Induced June 28th & will start Heparin shots twice a day at the start of week 36.
I've been having weird dreams <img src="http://www.asklenore.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif" alt="" /> but just praying that my baby is fine!
Thanks a LOT for ur support!

Your in the home stretch, honey!! Every day that your little one stays inside is that much more development. However, just know that little girls are the strongest if born early. Weeks 33 and 35 are really important in the devopment of lung tissue, however, will do quite well if you should go into labor. But, again, the longer in the womb, the better.

Braxton-Hicks are normal as your doctor told you. Your uterus is a complex muscle. Just like your car, if you don't keep oil in it, it is going to "act up." So, drink, drink, drink. Water and cranberry/cranapple is best. The key is that if you can see urine in the toilet after you urinate, you are not drinking enough fluids. Do not hold your urine for long, either. Your bladder sits directly on top of your uterus and if your bladder is full, you will notice your uterus will contract "under pressure." So, keep the fluids flowing!

Congratulations, you are on your way to holding your daughter in your arms very soon! Please keep us informed of your progress! If you have any questions, you may email me privately!

Prayers to you, <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
