So I see Trump won again. Side-eyeing Nevada right now.....
If the whole world isn't side-eyeing the US right now there's a problem. If he is for real (I'm still undecided on whether it's all just a ruse) hopefully he'll pivot back from the crazy needed to get the GOP nomination to the slightly less crazy that he used to be.
I'm sitting here at work staring at the clock. It's 3:30 Texas time, thirty more minutes... I only have to make it through fifteen minutes twice... five minutes six times.... come on 4 o'clock!! I'm super over today
Everything is good! I had some contractions yesterday but it wasn't frequent or painful. Today they got worse and fairly frequent and chugging water and laying down wasn't helping. So, I called the nurse and she had me come in. My cervix is 3.3 which is better than I expected. I am contracting a bit but nothing too productive. I'm back on the med for a few days to calm things down. He said this isn't surprising since I'm measuring 8 months. I heard all three heartbeats and cried. It was an emotional day.
DS 9/2/13 was a BFP from an IUI! Triplets due 6/29/16 also from an IUI!

Glad to hear things are ok! And hearing those three heart beats must've been so amazing. will you go back in for a follow up soon? Hoping the meds work and contrax stop!

@Huskerfanz so glad those babies are okay! My heart was skipping beats as I was scrolling down looking for an update--so glad it was a good one! But wow...yeah, I bet this HAS been an emotional day. Hope you can take it easy and be pampered.
***rant*** So my 3.5 year old has been in dance for 1.5 years. She seems to like it--she will practice at home all the time and will just randomly do the different things she's learned when she's in the middle of playing. She even plays dance class and is the teacher for me and my husband. But every.single.week it is a raging battle to get her ready for class and even sometimes to get her to participate in class. She cried the whole way here today, and now I am hearing her teacher praise her several times for doing such a good job. She participated in the recital last year and did a great job. I am so over the battle. If I ask her if she likes dance class sometimes she tells me no and that she doesn't want to come back. Tuition for the last session before the recital is due on Monday and I'm really torn about paying it or just letting her stop. We have already paid for her two costumes so we would be out that money. But, I am so tired of this battle. I think it would be better if my husband was home on Wednesday nights to help get her ready, but he never is--it is his night to hang out with friends and play his nerdy game--in fact one of the reasons we started our daughter in dance was because I needed to get out of the house on Wednesday nights since he was gone. I really don't know what to do. I think I remember around this time last year she started pushing coming, but she ended up doing great at the recital and asking to take it during the summer. I can't tell if I reacting out of pregnancy hormones, or if I should keep making her go to class.
I had a very brave stranger ask me how far along I am for the first time, today.
I mean, I feel like it's obvious now for people who know me but I feel like I could definitely still pass for just having a potbelly. I had half a mind to act like I wasn't pregnant and make her feel like a douche but I'm at work and it was a new client and I didn't feel like getting fired today.
@huskerfanz so glad things are ok. It definitely sounds like an emotional 48hrs! Hugs, mama. Hope you have calm, sweet dreams about those healthy little heartbeats tonight.
@deepaddy24 I've actually convinced my DH to legitimately consider emigrating. We are planning to leave NYC in a <2 yrs and Canada is on the list! (I've been pitching it for a year. Maine and Mass are also on the list).
@Huskerfanz I'm so glad everything is ok! I probably would have cried when I heard the heartbeats too!
For weight gain: I'm up over 30 lbs at 24 weeks. I'd lost a lot of weight before I got pregnant and it just came right back. I'm really disappointed in myself and I hate how I look right now.
