@sarahfoley725 You just can't make that kind of stuff up.... Good gravy.
Seriously! As if the fact that we ended up living about 5 miles away from each other isn't crazy enough, his wife buys my baby crib. His wife was the first of about 10 people interested in my crib. I was really worried he was going to come pick it up but he didn't. I can't believe he had the balls to even say he knew me after all of that crap! Oh well
Anyone else feeling like they're having a super long contraction? Not painful, just feels like really constant. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
This is my first kid too but I think contractions ARE painful right? Maybe you're just sore from stretching? My sides low down have been having a pulling feeling for the last two days and it's a little painful at times but that's about it.
Hi ladies, hope you are all doing fine (although some DH's are a bit a ....fill in what ever word suits your husband right now, and for most of you first work day after holidays...)
I'm also wondering if everything is oke with kynbar5...
I am back (sort of)... reading and catching up and procrastinating... I have two papers and two exams in the next two weeks then I essentially get paid to show up for a few hours a day and do not much before baby comes (some crazy rules about heavily pregnant women not being safe in laboratories and lots of radioactive chemicals.. hmph)
I flew in friday, slept sat and did our big ikea shop yesterday so the babys room is starting to come together (and shit is getting real)... if you want to check out my mood board (aka how I spent my sat on the couch) its on the nursery post...
8 weeks ladies!

@2goofykids I sometimes have BH like that too. They can last for a minute or two and aren't painful, but very uncomfortable and makes it a little harder to breath properly. So annoying!

BH contractions can be like that. I can get like that if I'm doing too much. Lots if water and put your feet up. Warm baths can help relax things. Sounds like your uterus is just doing its thing

Anyone else have a hard time getting up this morning?? I had a restless night with dreams of explosions everywhere not sure if I should interpret that in a positive or negative way. I'm stressed from moving to our new house in a few weeks and having nothing prepared for this baby. I need this Monday to be over with already I just want to crawl back into bed. Hope all you ladies have a better Monday.

I'm not sure if this is what you're describing, but I have periods of time when my stomach is hard and I can practically feel it growing - like it's pulling away from my body. It sometimes lasts for hours. I really think it is just growth/the weight of my stomach. I wouldn't worry until you start to feel a rhythm of pain coming and going every few minutes. Those are real contractions.
I hit 30 weeks yesterday. Feeling like the end is in sight, but not feeling much urgency to get anything done/ready. Haha. We have 95% of what we need, but nothing is set up or washed. Haven't even thought about my hospital bag. I packed it at 37 weeks last time and it sat on my floor mocking me for three weeks. Watch this baby come early when I was prepared so far ahead of time for the two that came late. Haha.

Gut wrenching moment today when ds1 woke up. He asked if it was a stay at home day. He started bawling when I told him no.
Mine, too. Everything hurt (elbow, knee, back of neck)...it was terrible. I was just up front with him. I said "Listen, we don't want to go back to work either, and sitting around watching TV all day sounds fun, but that's not life...so sorry kiddo, back to school you go." Shockingly, it didn't really help...
DH and I had our first of 5 birthing/prenatal classes. It never ceases to amaze me how much DH doesn't listen to me....lol.... They showed a visual aid of what our internal organs look like in the third trimester....you know, all up high and squished....and DH's little light bulb came on and he said "No wonder you are always short of breath and having to pee every 5 minutes. All your stuff is super squished."
DUH.....I have only told him this like 500 times.......sigh. Maybe he is just a visual learner and I need to draw him pictures from now on....lol.
Anyone else's bump feeling smaller? I think baby is starting to engage because my shelf is disappearing. Bring on the waddle!
I'm so looking forward to pregnancy number two so I know a little more about what my body is doing. I though baby was Rockin low down but I've been getting some high up kicks and rib pushes....but at the same time my hips, lower back, and crotch are all sore feeling.
Shockingly both of my girls were chomping at the bit to get out of the house today and daycare drop off with my crazy toddler went smoothly. I guess we're all sick of being cooped up in the house and looking at each other's ugly mugs.
@skruhmin my bump feels smaller the last couple days as well. What does it mean for the baby to engage? I'm a noob.
Head down and moving into pelvis for delivery - baby gets lower and lower and your pelvis will start hurting more. Don't worry, chances are you still have a good 10 weeks or so before delivery, but it's progress and moving in the right direction.

Today is super weird for me. DH went back to work but he has to be out of town for two weeks and I'm not working anymore so I'm like...what to do first.
Awe, we miss you to @skrumin. I am feeling a bit nasaus again today and don't want to do anything I feel for everyone having to go back to work today. I just have a ton of errands to run.
Pin cushion time over!! 3hr GTT is done. Crossing my fingers, toes and he'll if it helps I'll even cross my eyes that I pass. Now bring on the FOOD!! I'm misbehaving and having jimmy johns. I'm starving and they're freaky fast? Heehee.

It's weird because sometimes I feel like he's engaged—lots of pressure in the hips, vag, etc—but I think he's still moving about a lot, so he must not have made up his mind to stick with it. I really hope he does what he's supposed to soon (though that does mean I'll need to pee every 16 seconds).

I second Netflix!!
Although if I were you I might start making freezer meals if you have the energy for it (and space). You will NOT want to cook the first few weeks.

Just brought my dog to my new apartment, he'd been staying with my in laws for the past two months. He's so over-the-top happy, which is making me so happy. I think this place might start to feel like a real home soon.
Yesterday a friend came over and we went through all of the baby clothes we have, but our furniture hasn't come in yet to put it away! Also DH won't let me paint the nursery so that's kind of on hold. We literally just agreed on a paint color. One of my friends is coming over after school starts back to do freezer meals with me and we are also going to start going walking several times a week. So yes I'm currently Netflixing hahaha
Sticks that he won't let you paint. I actually love painting. I hate having to crawl on the ground to put the tape on the bottom borders but love painting
