aha!

So I'd been feeling crampy off and on over the past week or so, and it was worrying me a little. I'd figured out that more water seemed to make the sensation go away, but it felt so much like veryveryvery mild contractions that I didn't know what to make of it. Turns out that they're probably Braxton Hicks. I thought that that was something you only got in your last month or so, but apparently they start at six weeks and are noticeable for some women starting in the late first trimester.

Guess I need to start trying to drink even more water . . .
