  I slept ok... not for very long, but the sleep that I did get was good.
  
  Last night my mom offered to make me some homemade mac & cheese and I felt so disgusted lol I guess LO doesn't want mac & cheese
  
  Ticker change day for us!! We're 31 weeks today. That puts us 5-6 weeks away from cerclage removal and today marks me being 10 weeks further along than in my two previous pregnancies.
  
  Qotd: dh is still working on LO's room... he wanted to have it finished by Saturday (the baby shower) but it might not be done. I feel so bad that I can't help... and he's so tired, poor guy. I keep telling him we have time but he wants to make sure it's done.

  I slept terribly last night, up about a million times.  I seem to be waking H up every time too, which I feel badly about.  Hopefully one of these days we'll get a good night's sleep?  Maybe in a couple years?? 

  I see my MFM tomorrow, and tomorrow is ticker change day for me.  I keep having sharp pains in my cervix so hopefully we'll get some answers at the appt. 

  My parents visited today and brought a new bedding set for DD, and she loved it!  She was so excited and napped there today for the first time in her big girl (twin-sized) bed.  Now we can work on getting the nursery set up for this LO! 

  Is anyone doing maternity pictures?  Or planning on newborn photos?  I would like to do each, but cost is a big factor.  We have a decent camera and my H is pretty good with editing, so we might try that first and then see how it comes out. 

  @tracint, congrats on 31 weeks and 10 week milestone!

  Hi all!!
  
  Insomnia is now majorly kicking in for me. I seem to wake up about 30 mins before my Nifed is due with contractions, I take it and then the side effects (heart pounding, slightly dizzy, warmth in chest) make it hard to fall back asleep. I think I was also missing DS. He slept the whole night in his own bed for the first time! I should be excited (I am!) but I missed snuggling up to him.
  
  Heartburn blows and my hips hurt more. LO is way up in my ribs these days.
  
  Just got home from an u/s and NST. U/s showed continued mild polyhdramnios (AFI 26) but baby is growing well, staying about 47th%ile with little short stubby femurs (looks like I've cursed another baby with my short genes, I'm 5'2" and DH is 6'4"... DS is 45th%ile for height). His estimated weight was 3lbs 13oz, which is exciting b/c DS was 3lbs 7oz at birth.
  
  QOTD: DH goes to Tahoe on a work trip this weekend so my BFF is visiting from NY and will help with DS. Luckily she's awesome and full of energy and will be great with DS, but I'm crazy stressed about going into PTL and DH not being able to get home. They are having a big snow storm Friday night. He's going to put tire chains on and can also drive to Reno or another small airport and fly, but it makes me nervous.
