Tell me your whines and your wines (something good).
Whine: H is still clueless today. He emailed me from work like 30 mins after getting there all like "If you wanted to get out of the house you could run and grab me chewing tobacco and bring it to me". Um no, I'm not leaving this couch much less this house and you can take a break in a bit and run to the gas station.
Wine: DS is in a reasonably good mood and my headache is only at about a 4-5 right now.

Whine: I hate not being able to eat past 6 due to my dumb acid reflux. Thank heavens my work lets me flex my work so I can leave the office at 2:00 and I can have enough time to get home, rest a bit, make supper, and eat before getting some more work done. But OMG, knowing there are ice cream bars in the freezer at 8:00 is the worst.
Wine: It's been so nice outside!! I love mid-60s weather.

Whine: I have been really gassy today and it is really unattractive and uncomfortable... I am hoping it passes soon.
Wine: For the most part the plants that I planted this year are still doing well. My elephant ears are finally coming up and my herb garden is doing well.
Whine: I was 10 minutes down the road this morning when I realized I forgot my glasses and had to turn back. Nothing like being 20 minutes late for work when you've been out for two days already.
Wine: I am officially one year older as of yesterday, and got some birthday money, holla! I don't know if I should spend it or save it for after baby. Clothes shopping will probably suck for at least the next 6 months.
Whine: My knee is totally a grapefruit after my little tumble yesterday. Last night was awful. I could tell there was some fluid building up and it hurt to bend/walk. I slept with an ace knee sleeve on which seemed to help control the swelling a little. Its at least no more swollen today than it was yesterday. I'm working from home today so I can keep it elevated and iced. Its starting to feel a bit better.
Wine: The baseball team DH coaches won their playoff game last night!! Tonight they play their rival, so it will be another nail biter for me!
Whine: K has now decided that her wolf must come with her everywhere. Eating yogurt? Wolfie wants some. Taking a shower? Wolfie wants to come. I fucking took a shower with a stuffed wolf propped outside the glass so that she could still see the damn thing. This is the story of my life.
Wine: She now tries to feed her stuffed animals bottles, which gives me faith that it won't be a total shit show once the new baby gets here.
Whine: I'm tired and I just want to eat all the junk food but I'm trying to be good.
Wine: DD went pee on the potty this morning for the first time! We've been reading potty books and she started to show interst so since we're chilling at home this morning I decided to put her in undies. I still can't believe she did but I'm hoping this keeps up.

Whine: work is killing me and DH has been sick for over a week now and I need him to pick up my slack at home. He was up seven times sick last night and went to work anyway. Yesterday he was at me to "just relax" as he laid on the couch... But who is going to pick up DS at daycare? Make dinner? Clean up from dinner? Pack the daycare bag? Prep lunches? Make sure we have clean clothes? I wish DH stayed home today to rest and get better, but his company has the stupidest sick leave policy known to man so he decided to go in. I want to cry. I did cry. I'm struggling.
Also I want to take a cute bump pic because who knows how many more weeks I'll have...but I don't want to put on real clothes...
I'm the BMB scrub and never put on real clothes for HDBD haha. It's almost always whatever I rolled out of bed (and stayed in all day) unless we had something planned later on that night and I decide to put a little effort into my looks. So I say go for it

DD has her end of year celebration tomorrow so I might wait until I get dressed for that. Right now I'm rocking a t shirt and captain America pj pants.
Happy belated birthday tootsie!! I vote treat yourself, but if you're feeling guilty about it then put a little bit of the money to the side for baby and spend the rest!

Thank you! Definitely no guilt about not spending it on the baby, lol. It's mine, all mine!
My whine: I slept like shit last night. Was up multiple times to pee which is normal, but SPD was really acting up. The last couple times I went to get out of bed to go to the bathroom it felt like my pubic bone was breaking/ripping apart, so much so that I had a hard time walking. And getting back into bed consisted of a lot of hissing noises and contemplating sleeping anywhere else that didn't involve needing to climb/separate my legs. If this continues to happen and get worse, not sure how I'm going to make it another 9+ weeks...
My wine: We were at the mall last night getting a couple things when we came across massage chairs that were $5 for 15 minutes. I was hurting after our earlier walk so we decided to try them, and I haven't laughed that hard in a while! H's chair kept massaging/hitting him in the back of the head so I'd look over and his head would be bobbing away, and then both our chairs had a very interesting massager that would randomly pop up right into our butts so we were both making comments about the fisting massager. I kept ending up having coughing attacks from laughing so hard and I'm sure everyone walking by thought we were insane, but whatever. We had a great time haha
How can I tell if I'm leaking fluid or just having extra thin discharge?
I've heard to dry yourself off, lay down for a while, then stand up and see if there's a small gush. AF will cause a small gush of wetness upon standing.
But the best way to know is to call your dr or head to L&D
Boo. I hate going there. No real "gush" but way more than normal.
It seems like my heart has been beating a lot faster on occasion, like I can feel my pulse when I am just sitting down and relaxing. Has anyone else experienced this??

I get this too but it's usually accompanied by Finn up in my lungs so I just attribute it to not being able to breathe well. But I heard that palpitations are pretty frequent for some during pregnancy.

Are the babies super active? I've had days when Baby has been in a position that presses on my bladder where I feel like I'm leaking urine consistently, but I don't actually feel it coming out. Just... damp and no gushing.

Whine: DD was sick yesterday so i stayed home and took her to the doctor. Which doesn't help me save leave for after the new baby is born. And i always do too much work at home so i was quite uncomfortable lastnight my back was killing me.
Wine: DD is on antibiotics and looking and feeling better. I gotta a ton of stuff done during DDs 3 hr nap yesterday. I am happy about clean bathrooms, clean sheets and a weeded garden.

Yes, I get this too when I'm just sitting around watching TV. I've taken my pulse and it comes out normal. Definitely a symptom of pregnancy!

Lol those chairs are not relaxing at all! I sat in one when I went for a pedicure last week and I felt like I was being tossed around in it! And you're totally right about the "fisting", ha ha!
How can I tell if I'm leaking fluid or just having extra thin discharge?
My ob said to lay down and get up a few times and if you get a lot of "discharge " it's probably fluid pooling in your vag and you should get it checked out. I am still not 100% certain my discharge is not amniotic fluid. I wish there was a stick test!
