@Wishilivedinflorida I missed belly laying sooo much. DS was an August baby so it was great because I could float around the pool while LAYING ON MY BELLY!!!! (all caps to stress my excitement on that matter)
@Jyoung327 if you have a bachelors degree you could look into VIPKid. You make your own schedule up to 2 weeks out teaching English to kids in China online from your home. My husband does it as a side job and makes $21 per hour. It’s a pretty nice gig but I wouldn’t suggest doing it until your babies are on a good schedule or if your partner can look after them while you are working because once you schedule yourself they aren’t really flexible with cancelling your obligations.

@skilledsailor Are you doing yoga? I have haven't been working out, per the dr, but I wanted to start some yoga back up. I hadn't even thought about cobra though. I feel like I get RPL if I stretch while supine. Like if I'm on my belly in bed and reach forward for something, the stretch on my abdomen is uncomfortable. Do you get that?
@Redpuma119 Yes! Ab stretches feel way tighter than before. I have been doing yoga still. The prenatal class I do does a modified sun salutation sequence that skips cobra. It also usually focuses on hip openers which is awesome. Then in flow yoga I just do childs pose during cobra til they get to down dog.
You can also stay hands and knees and do cow pose rather than cobra.

My goal is to find a massage place with one of those “hole in the table” things to put my belly. Last pregnancy I had a third tri massage, which was nice, but I had to flip from side to side and all I longed for was to lay on my belly!!!
Also, for FTM who plan to breastfeed (and even to those who don’t, this applies for a short while), be prepared that belly lying won’t be possible for a long while. Your milk-filled boobs will prevent that! I was so sad when I realized this early on.
My mom bought me a prenatal massage for my bday when I was pregnant with DS. I was about 36 weeks when I went and she had one of those pillows with the holes - it was heaven!!!! I highly recommend it!
My bday is about a month and a half before this one is due too so I'm secretly hoping for another gift certificate there.

For the last few years for our birthdays (1 month apart) DH and I have been going to the most amazing spa and getting couples massages. Since my due date is right after my birthday I guess we’ll be going around DH’s this year. I had the prenatal massage when pregnant with DD and it was amazing!
