@nicholeL16 Thanks, good luck to you too falling back asleep. I keep telling myself that I need sleep so whenever baby decides it's time to make his arrival I won't get too exhausted this time around - although don't think labor will last 18 hours again.
@Schell2013 SNOW!! Already?! I love fall/winter but I don't want snow yet!

@Schell2013 growing up in upstate NY (not just 15 minutes outside of NYC, but 8 hours) I am familiar with snow in almost all of the months. It is crazy to live in CA now and never have to deal with it. It's beautiful but man is it inconvenient.
@orangeev - I don't know if it was on this thread or not, but yesterday I read a comment from you that you feel human again after birth despite caring for a newborn. Just wanted to say that post made my day! I'm having a rough third tri and I keep getting scared that it will be even worse with a newborn. Good to hear that isn't always the case!
I was up most of the night too and now feel like a zombie. The baby was moving but I was also having horrible stomach pain- like hurt to touch stomach pains. I think it was a mix of the baby moving and gas and acid reflux. My placenta is taking up too much space in the bottom of my uterus and this baby is running out of room.
Now now I have period like cramping again. Glad I have a doctors appointment tomorrow.
@strickland8052 As much as I love my baby, I looooove having my body to myself again! And lying on my stomach! My third tribwas rough too, hang in there. The end is near!
@mrszoess Your comment made me laugh out loud and jiggle my nursing baby.
It's husband's first night back to work and his stupid job really screwed over his hours. He used to work 2:30pm-11pm, but they're making him work 3:30pm-4am. He usually takes nightly baby duty so I can get a few hours sleep. I laid Hazel down around 11pm and she's fussed ever since then. We've eaten, changed diapers, and gave her a pacifier...now we're sitting on the couch with a full belly and she's passed out on my chest. Guess I know where I'm sleeping tonight.
Can't sleep and went in the kitchen to discover that our freezer temp is at 15deg instead of 2deg. If I lose the few freezer meals I made, I'll cry. Update: temp is back to normal. DH must have forgotten to close the freezer properly after getting the ice cream out last night
My mind is racing. I cannot fall asleep. We had DD2's birthday party today and now I just want to clean like a mantic now that I know I won't be having anymore company over until the baby is born. I want every inch of this house spotless and organized before my scheduled section on Wednesday cause I know I won't be able to do any hard cleaning for about a month.

I woke up at 4:30 this morning. My stomach was super hard so I guess I was having more BH. My lower back is killing me from the sciatica and my upper back aches from trying to compensate for my lower back. I was also nauseous. I went to the kitchen and got some teddy ghrams and water. Now I'm laying back in bed with an ice pack on my lower back and heating pack on my upper. Please come out baby. Please.
@AllyTheKid I wake up in the morning with mild nausea frequently and have to get a snack. All it really takes it a couple bites of something to make it go away. I've been very fortunate on the nausea side of things.
@NicholeL16 Oh okay, I was just going to say I started getting nauseous (and vomiting) in the middle of the night before I started going into labor, but if you've been nauseous frequently already that's obviously not the case. I was going to try to offer some hope if the nausea was new!
Baby is nursing non stop. If I couldn't hear him swallowing the milk I would think he wasn't getting anything. We are still in the hospital and sleeping in here is tough.

Grayson went through a cluster feeding phase in the hospital too. It was really rough but the nurses assured me it's perfectly normal and good for both him and you to keep putting him to your breast. It will pass!
I woke up in the middle of the night and had an all out panic attack because I couldn't remember the last time I felt him move. He's moving fine already this morning but I can't seem to shake the feelings from last night.

@NicholeL16 It doesn't get better. That was me last night with him breathing. If he doesn't make noise after so long I wake up and shoot out of bed to check on him. I think this is going to be the rest of our lives...
Anyone else Crib dWeller hate the crib? SJ will only sleep in play pen napping station which is to soft for my likING or in my arms and I feel like that's even worse. I've been fighting him for last 3 days I put him in crib he wakes up I put him in crib. Then he sleeps all day long lol
Been up for the past 1.5 hrs. Ugh and now I have a pounding headache.

@sportiegrl1213 I woke up with a huge headache on the top of my head. I couldn't go back to sleep for 45 min and then woke up late this morning. It was awful and random.
Right?! I haven't had a headache since early 2nd tri... very weird and I drank enough water during the day but not sure what it was from @mommabear444

Apparently it's my destiny to see 3:00am every night now. Both dogs & the H are snoring and I'm chewing tums & debating on getting up to pee for the third time in an hour.

I've been up at 4:30 am every morning all week. Went to bed at midnight and work up at 2 and timing contractions every 6 mins while H snores away. If this isn't baby day I'm gonna be really tired and really freaking cranky.

Abigail has officially decided to eat every 30 minutes all night long (last night we started at 11 pm) and then magically at 6:00 am she sleeps for four hours straight.
