Thanks Clare

My Dr explained but I don't really understand it still. Something about me being 38 (next week) and it being my 4th preg (third to 3rd tri) and how the muscles etc are stretched from previous pregnancy's (life in general every thing goes south ) . The uterus getting bigger and more pressure on it as it pushes on other organs . All these things when they come together and can cause irritable uterus. Plus I have a few medical problems that are makeing me feel very run down at the moment.

I am under the Consultant at the High Risk clinic here in Newcastle. Even though I don't really understand what makes this happen (now with this pregnancy) I follow his instructions to rest and use heat packs and hot baths for the discomfort, and I can use panadole fort if the pain gets really bad. He has also recomended Accupuncture (sp??).

Thank you!
Chris
