I got up with some light period-like cramping around 1:30am. Was able to fall back asleep with waves coming every 7-10 min around 3am. And now they're waking me up....going to putter around the house and clean for a bit, and hope they go away. Baby really needs to stay put until tomorrow so my in-laws can get down here to take care of her big sister. Eeek!
Re: Sh*t. I'm not sure baby is listening.
good luck.
I would rest as opposed to clean and putter around. More chance of them diminishing if you are resting.
Yeah, I did go back to sleep. They're still here...if my in-laws could make it down, I'd probably go for a walk, but as it stands I'm just trying to lay low. They still aren't really in a pattern and aren't too painful yet.
stay put, little one!
keep us posted!
Try drinking a lot of water and lying down. You can even drink a small (~3ounce) glass of wine to relax things (midwives rec this all the time to pre-term'ers and it has no affect on your baby's development or health, it isn't enough to affect them by any measure).
Try to remain as calm as possible.
