For the past couple nights I've been awakened by stronger, more frequent and regular Braxton Hicks contractions that usually last from 4am to....whenever I fall back asleep, which is usually a couple hours later. This in conjunction with my 3-4 nightly trips to the bathroom have made me bleary eyed during the day.
This morning I went in for an appointment with Dr. Chan (my OB). The main concern was preterm labor but she checked my cervix and I wasn't dilated or effaced. She also performed a fetal fibronectin test to help determine my risk for going into preterm labor in the next two weeks. The results should be back in a couple days.
In the meantime, I'm going to try and catch up on my sleep.
