  @peppererdmoth I've had the same thing.  Little girl dropped and my adventures in L&D last night confirmed that her head is down in my pelvis.  Lots of pressure down there, she's pressing against my pelvic bone, and I'm waddling like crazy.

  Thanks all. Yup, it's mostly pain in my pubic bone, and if I move my legs myself with my hands it's better. I'd been standing on one leg to put pants and whatnot on until yesterday but due to my new symptom I had to sit down this morning to do it which gave me a chance to admire my cankles up close and personal!
  
  I'm gonna go to the pool this afternoon and then see about a massage to schedule for next week......

  I'm pumping and drinking my morning coffee. I took a large drink and choked horribly on it and spit it all over myself! Great start...

  Oh my gosh. As you know pumping any kind of amount worth anything is a big deal for me.
  So i go to get the milk out and put it in a bottle, one of my bags from last night leaked everywhere-i'm so frustrated.
  
  I'm emotionally done right now.
  I have another week left with my mil, she suggested to my H to take me on a date saturday for my birthday...i'm not ready to leave mia yet, bit no one understands this.
  
  My H goes back to work friday, i really hope she doesn't try to get up and help me. I have to get used to doing this on my own.

  I had grand plans to clean the heck outta my house today. Elodie has grand plans of napping on me. I think I like her plans better, but I still want my house clean. It's driving me kinda batty.

  MH was saying last night how funny it would be to have an April Fool's baby.  That would put me 9 days past due.  Not cool, dude.  Not cool.

  @saisongbird‌ mine was from my cousin's paternal grandmother, over lunch. Seriously, why is it that people think when I'm eating is the right time to ask about my pregnancy? You can't wait until I'm just sitting around? And why do you need to know at all?! It's not like I'm hiding my baby's birth from you! She's obviously still an inside baby!!!

  One of our twins is inconsolable after feeding/diapers during the night. DH and I are about to lose our shit due to lack of sleep. It's 4:20 and so far I've gotten an hour. He's lying in his crib, whimpering for a few minutes, then stopping for a few while I pump. I don't know what to do.

  @bandteacher Are they getting close to the 3 week mark? That is usually when a growth spurt hits and it was terrible with DS.  All he wanted to do was be awake and eat.  Constantly.  After a few days, he was back to normal but DH and I were about to lose it, despite taking turns and getting an hour of sleep at a time.

  They're 3 weeks today! DH has basically zero baby knowledge and keeps telling DS "You're not hungry! It's only been 2 hours!" He doesn't get it. So he goes to bed and I feed DS. Then the twins weren't on the same schedule, which really fucked things up. Finally at 6:30 this morning when DH came in to wake me for feeding time, I told him I'd only had a half hour of sleep and he did it alone and let me sleep. Only downside is I went 5 hours between pumping. Just what my clogged ducts need.

  Yeah, just know that it is completely normal and it just isn't a fun time.  It passes quickly, thankfully.  

  
  

  Sorry you are going through the growth spurts, in addition to EPing/clogged ducts.  Thats not fun and it makes getting sleep really hard.

  
  

  Rest when you can -- you can get through it! My DH and I were talking about this this AM -- I asked him if he remembers the 3 week growth spurt DS went through 2.5 years ago -- he said he did.  It pretty vividly sticks out in our minds -- no other growth spurts rang a bell with either of us, thankfully.

  Walking helped get him down further and a little more action but so far that's it. Had to come back in...unlike where many of you ladies are it's pretty warm here. Will have to pick back up when the sun goes away.

  Hugs. MH fed DD2 6 oz of breast milk once when I was IN THE HOUSE. He didn't want to bother me bc I was studying, but I sobbed. That was 3 pumping sessions gone in a minute.

  I think MH would be sleeping on the couch if he did that.  I'm so sorry!

  MH came home from work and went to bed. The baby has a temperature of 99, so not enough to really worry about but enough to make him a fussy mess. The dogs are downstairs because they had muddy feet and one won't stop crying about it and I can't even put the baby down long enough to go get them. So I have a fussing baby and fussing dog and no help. I'm about to scream.

  Up til now I haven't worried about it so much, but before I went for my OB visit, I repacked our hospital bags and threw them in the car. I just felt weird, like I needed to do something. What I really did was jinx myself...

  I keep jinxing myself

  And I was starving because I've only been able to snack today.
  And now there will probably be a fight when mh gets up because I sent him a snotty text about not helping before he laid down. Funny how once I ate I realized that wasn't good lol

  Aww @mrsdahamm‌ I'm sorry!! I usually tell my hubs I can't be held responsible for what I say or do when I'm hangry!! Hopefully you get some help and food soon

  Hehe DH and I are both grumpy when we're hungry. If we're bickering, one of us says, "I'm hungry." Then it ends and we both forgive each other.

  First world problems!! So my husband is planning to go back home to New Zealand for a visit, probably around Christmas time. He is bringing the baby and my youngest daughter. Problem is, he wants me to go and I have been terrified of flying ever since I was on a short flight from Texas that dropped a couple thousand feet and everyone was screaming. 

  1 word. Valium.
  
  I don't have a fear of flying but have no problem with gratuitous drug use for long flights.

  I am so sick of "Just you wait..." comments. Stop asking me about my cervix. Stop telling me what you think I should do during labor. If someone comments on my ability to "not fuck up a baby" compared to a new mom who has never changed a diaper or anything before, I am going to snap.
