3. I feel like crap but it's not pregnancy related. I have a horrible cold that is not quitting UGH!
4. No pampering plans really. I'll probably still go to the spa with BFF but that's like an annual tradition.

Had new low back pains and cramps Sunday and was instructed to go to L&D. Nothing wrong, just more normal multiples pain (yay!) I will see my OB every two weeks now, and I expect our specialist will increase visits also (next appt 10/27 with him).
I am winded easily and can't get around too well, but still managing to get to the office and put my feet up. My bump is measuring term already, and I am nervous for the coming months. I started using amazon prime pantry for household items, this decreases the trips to store for DH!
QOTW: I keep meaning to get a massage, but I can't even seem to remember to schedule a haircut. I tell myself after they are born (haha!)

Nothing new, although no brown spotting for awhile! So fx.
I'm getting bigger. It's so great, but tough to sleep. Also feeling them move now!!! This is so awesome. I can tell A from B already which I didn't think I would for awhile.
Eh. I do need a haircut...lol. I'm not big on pampering anyway.
I also made a trip to L&d last night and while I was having regular contractions when I got there, they observed me and it did not look like active labor. Eventually the contractions slowed up and went away so they let me come home. I have a cold and I'm wondering if that had anything to do with it, but I'm just glad to be home and not in labor. On the positive side baby girl looked awesome on the monitor and so that was nice to see.
No pampering plans as of now.
