@Kipperoo: Happy weekend to you as well! (I have those freezing issues too... SO frustrating! Chrome keeps crashing.)
@Jkp7749: You're right about calling and chatting up a nurse, for peace of mind, before they close for the weekend... but... if you don't think it's those things you've listed, it might even be an elbow jab from the baby---seriously, I've had a few that have stopped me in my tracks. They can be strong.
@Jkp7749 I think the general recommendation is to lay down and drink water to see if the pain goes away. If it's not getting any better then I would definitely call your doctor for peace of mind!

There's a O17 group now. It has no threads. The perfectionist in me is loving how clean it looks. The anarchist in me wants to go start a random thread with nothing but silly gifs.

There's a whole group hanging out in Sept 17 waiting impatiently for that board to open, I am sure it won't take long. They've been messaging the admins asking for it to be opened!
Also, our babies will be 5 months old when those October babies are born! Crazy.

I do hate that I can't tag you, and I seem to want to tag you a lot! Then again, way back on my Knot days tagging wasn't even a thing. I now carry the nickname "Rox" because that's what everyone would call me. Definitely lends to more fun nicknames on the boards .
@Jkp7749 I would call just in case. I had so many issues with the twins and couldn't feel most of my contractions. Granted I hope that's not the case but I would definitely want to rule anything out.
@mrsrep123 I'm in a general Medical ICU. We have mostly pulm/sepsis/organ failure etc. However, we're the biggest ICU in our hospital with 40 beds, so we get A LOT of trauma, surgical, neuro, and some cardiac patients as overflow. I love the adrenaline and worry that as an NP I'm going to miss it. I have NO idea what kind of environment that I want to be in as an NP, but definitely outpatient (I'll be an FNP) and basically I'm just over working weekends and holidays!
Random: I started getting that line down my stomach. First, it was under my belly button, and now it's also very faintly above. But the two lines don't match up on either side of my belly button. It's driving me nuts! I keep hoping they'll line up as my stomach stretches.
@KMD1106 I'm in the angry ute club. I can water board myself and still get them. My doc said uterine irritability and discomfort is more common the second time so I guess that's kind of comforting?
@h&pmomma our babies being 5 months old come October made me squeal like a little girl! I've been watching 2 7 month olds lately and all I can think is "this is my babe in a year!!!!"
@rosemarylaff I stupidly decided to start listening to country again on the way to my OB appt a couple weeks ago... "There goes my life" came on and omg, the tears.
The same song got me last week, too! Stupid tears on the way to work.
I had one of my first irrational pregnant lady crying moments yesterday. I was hovering in the room after getting ready for work and DH looked at me... I burst into tears and said "I just feel fat, make it better!" He did make it better. It's funny because on most days I feel like this beautiful pregnant goddess, but then I'll just have a random insecure day.

@Jen_Shoes - I'm a little late chiming in, but I had to fly for work yesterday, so I thought I'd let you know my experience. Flight out was no problem asking for a pat down, and it only took maybe 5 extra minutes. The flight back was from a much smaller airport. At first TSA gave me some grief, but then they agreed. It took almost 15 minutes just to get a female TSA agent over. So, basically, the size of the airport might contribute to their reaction!
Yesterday I finally realized I'm nesting like a crazy person when while I was assembling a crib Williams Sonoma calls to schedule a delivery and I had to ask which order is was for. Our two new master bedroom dressers (PB), the baby's dresser (PBK), or the new master bed (West Elm).
And the ikea dressers got picked up last week and I'm scheduling goodwill to come take my dresser, the old bed, and a living room chair.
@kns1988 I've been feeling the same way! Most of the time, I really like my belly, but every once in a while I just feel really fat and uncomfortable. I've been in the later group for a couple days.
@WombThereItIs I love it. I'm anxiously awaiting the day when I can order our new PB bed, dresser, and side tables when this renovation is done (they're all picked out). In the meantime I've got the delivery of the dresser/changing table scheduled and I can't wait.
@WombThereItIs DH has put me on a strict "furniture buying schedule" of one item per pay cycle haha. Otherwise I'm sure my delivery schedule would be super similiar to yours. I've got a new TV stand, daybed, rug, and nursery decor on my list.

Shiz just got real. We went to babies r us to look at things for #2. We love the Chicco Bravo 2, the Lillebaby (sp?) carrier, Sit Me Up, and Chicco Key Fit. I'm also thinking the Summer split screen dual monitor, but need to research that more. It's crazy to think of all of this baby gear again!

@KMD1106 I was actually just going to ask the group if they have recommendations for a dual monitor. The summer one is the first one that came up when I did a search, but I also feel like I need to do more research. Our previous motorola bit the dust after only using for 2 years with DD.

I asked this on the baby gear thread, as I am wondering the same thing. We have a summer one for DD and it's had its share of issues, so I'm hesitant to go that route again. However, any search I do, the summer one is the first to come up. I definitely need to do more research too.
I had a summer monitor that barely lasted 18 months before the video stopped working. I hear negative reviews about the Motorola one as well, so I'm lost on which one to get! I have this one on my list right now but still researching. You can add a second camera if needed, although I don't necessarily need one as my older two share a room and will be 3 and 5. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0052QYLUM?ref=br_ov_mobile_detail&colid=1TJDYWUTBUSBG&coliid=I1O0BGK9GHYVAX

Hmm looks like Summer may not be the best. We have a Levana one now that has been good. Ours is a older model so we can't add a new camera. The brand seems good, so I'm thinking I'll look into that.

As I was putting on my pajamas last night DH exclaimed, "Whoa! Are you bloated are something?" I responded no, why. He went on to explain that I look so much bigger all of a sudden. Seriously dude, I'm 24 weeks pregnant.
@mrsrep123 I got that monitor for Christmas as an upgrade. I'm really liking it so far. We bought the second camera so we will have it when it's time. Setup was easy, it holds a charge well, and we got some extra lenses so when kid 1 switches to a toddler bed we'll be able to get a better wide angle view of the room.
