Campus Stroll & Braxton Hicks

How many years have I been at my job? Several years...Today, was the first time I went for a walk during my lunch break. I walked a one mile loop. I mapped my route, but somehow I got lost?? Yeah, I did! I didn't see the campus signs I was looking for. Either way, it worked out because by the time I got back to my building my Nike GPS watch read, just a little over 1 mile.

I really enjoyed this walk. I don't wander around campus often, so I actually, saw parts of UTA, that I've never seen before. I would like to make this lunch break walking thing a habit. We'll see how it goes the rest of the week.

Too bad I'm just now wanting to do this -- since it will only be getting warmer. Today, it was hot in the sun, but cool in the shade.

BRAXTON HICKS


Lately, I've been experiencing Braxton Hicks contractions, which is completely normal. I got them real bad while we were on the road, Monday. I told Trey, "I'm not sure if it's gas or contractions." Ha! I'm pretty sure it was BH contractions. My stomach was in knots. The pain would come and go, just like real contractions.

I've also been experiencing BH contractions during my workouts. Again, it's normal, but it doesn't mean, I love it. It just brings back traumatic memories of child birth pain! Ouch. Oh, and I think I mentioned how I haven't had bad heartburn in several weeks, well that comment came back and bit me. I had fire heartburn, on Monday. I'm getting sick of taking TUMS chewable. I don't like how the tablets get stuck in my teeth, so I'm going to see about getting another product.

People keep asking me if I'm ready. Am I? I think so. But----
I'm in no rush, to rush this pregnancy.


Do you have any suggestions for heartburn medicine?
