Yesterday while cooking up lunch, Heather doubled over. She was holding her tummy and had an "owwww?!" expression on her face. We got her into a chair, and after a few more moments, the pain subsided a bit. She said that her upper stomach muscles had tightened up, like cramps. The whole episode lasted about 20 seconds.
We guessed that this was a Braxton-Hicks contraction, based on what other women had told Heather, and what the pregnancy books described. Even though this wasn't the real thing, talk about a jolt of adrenaline for daddy! I was ready to race mommy and little BW to the hospital.
