Interesting Sensations

I've been feeling pressure lately on my stomach (over the past 1 or 1 1/2 weeks) that I thought was the baby just pushing with his feet or bum or something. After reading more, I think those are actually Braxton Hicks contractions. Not all women feel them, but the ones that do tend to feel them in the late 2nd or early 3rd trimester until the end of the pregnancy. Very weird. I'll definitely be bringing this up to my midwife at this week's appointment.

I've also started getting a lot of heartburn, which I've never really had before. I find I can't eat too much either, or it feels like I'm going to be sick. Plus I keep waking up at 4am, which might be my body telling me to go pee, but since the sensation to urinate feels different now, I find I just try to sleep through it.

So I guess I had a good 6 weeks or so, but it looks like it's all starting to slide downhill already. LOL.

Is it November yet? :P
