I'm heading in later today for a non-stress test since I've been having Braxton hicks every 5 minutes and decreased fetal movement.

Thanks Ladies! Baby looks great! I was having contractions every 5 minutes! The baby's heartrate went up each time which I guess is good and healthy and it would only be a concern if it went down. With a couple glasses of ice water, we got a couple good baby movements too. So.... I guess I'm stuck with contractions every 5 minutes apart until my uterus decides to take a break or take labor seriously.

Glad everything is ok @kyreno11! My nst was showing contractions about 5 minutes apart too on Tuesday. What a mf.
