23 weeks 6 days:
Had a little scared today. I was cramping on the way to church, so we went home and called the doctor. The doctor told me to go to the hospital for a check up. We were there for more than 4 hours... They think I might not be hydrated enough. Apparently, dehydration can cause contractions or contraction-like symptoms :P Oops~ The doctor said I should minimize all activities now, put up the feet to let the blood flow toward the uterus. I guess my bed rest has official began.
Say Whaaat?

Hey Karen,
Just ready your latest blog posting and glad to know that it was just a false alarm! I'd read in somewhere about dehydration causes contractions! At least you know now, so keep yourself hydrate all the time!
One suggestion, since you are going to stay home most of the time from now on, make good use of the internet to look for pregnancy resouces, it'll definitely help you along your way of pregnancy to feel more comfortable about your progress or common symptoms which may happens to many pregnant women! I'd told you about the babycenter.com, right?! It's a pretty good resource site! There are quite a few out there! Hang in there!
