Rants/Raves: I am aching! Last night was the first time I really felt that I couldn't sleep since the 1st tri, and I just ordered a body pillow (fingers crossed!) I'm also really feeling stretched out and bloated all the time with a teeny bit of relief when I first wake up in the morning.

Rants/Raves: mother in law has me off my rocker this week. Long Story short she is wants us to travel as first time parents to Florida with a 2 month old. I've been firm with a we shall see but I feel like now I have a pressure of  being a failure in her eyes if we decide not to do it. It's not the travel I'm worried about, it's a 3 hour drive, 3 hour flight then 2 hour drive to get there. Then his parents  sister and brother in law and the three of us who would be staying in a 2 bedroom small house. None of this seems enjoyable with a 2/3 month old. I want my husband to go as like a break from baby (my mom could come stay with me).
