    Re: Irritable uterus and Braxton hicks = anxious Mumma!

    For what it's worth, I had an irritable uterus my last pregnancy when I was quite dehydrated. I think I read that dehydration can do that? When I drank a stack of water, things got much better for me. It might not be the case for you, but I just thought I'd mention it cos it's warm these days. And perhaps keeping hydrated would help you feel like you are 'doing' something to try and help. Frustrating, isn't it. I hope things settle a bit for you.
