@chelseay416 this is so NBR but I just happened to notice that our husbands basically have the same job (well, very similar)- mine teaches an energy policy course to engineering students. It's a side gig as he's also an energy efficiency consultant but he's been doing it for years.
Nothing to update since yesterday but just wanted to pop in to say that I totally relate to the belly button ring hole thing. Mine looks SO bizarre..
also @jmohiomy back has been significantly better since I started sleeping with a sleeping bra on. I also bought an ergonomic pillow - the combination of the two has really really helped by back pain.

@egirl1025 I don't feel that way about my family, but DH's parents are super meh about it. This is their 3rd grandchild but I still feel like their lack of excitement sucks. I'm sorry you're feeling like this, just remember we are all super excited for you and your little one
How far along are you? 28+6 (apparently 29 weeks since my OB has changed my due date by one day???)
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Rant: Sleeping is getting even less comfortable. My patience is dwindling. Rave: We went to our prenatal class on the weekend and it was really good! I am also super happy because it kind of got DH into "baby mode" and now he's nesting! lol. It's awesome. We went to IKEA last night to pick up some shelves and he's even excited to put them together tonight. Symptoms: Pain, BH, exhaustion, rage.
What are you doing to prepare for baby? Getting the nursery going. Putting up a bookshelf and a wall shelf tonight. I've also started washing some clothes and blanket
ETA an update: Went to the high risk OB yesterday and they said my cervix was up to 3.2 or 3.3 instead of 2.2! That's the longest it's ever measured to date. I'm excited because I think once I hit 30-32 weeks the doctor might start letting me do more things
Yay!! Yours is longer than mine now!
DS 9/2/13 was a BFP from an IUI! Triplets due 6/29/16 also from an IUI!
How far along are you? 27 +1 Rant/Rave/symptoms: not sleeping the greatest:S between the frequent bathroom trips, just insomnia I'm not getting much sleep. BH is increasing a lot and so is the cramping- fun times What are you doing to prepare for baby: Just bought some bottles, crib mattress, and an extra crib sheet today.
@mkemommy & @edeibel89 Thank you for the words of solidarity. I am happy that each of us have at least a couple people in our lives and this awesome board to turn to for support!
