I hope everyone had a good Saturday or Valentine's Day...however you looked at it.
We had a pretty good day and nice dinner last night. Although we decided we need to do dinner on a day or two before/after Vday because it was so crowded and loud in the place we went to. We could barely talk to each other. I let DH get a piece when we got home...first time in like 2 weeks so hopefully he was satisfied

For a moment I was like "piece of what?".. I think the lack of sleep is catching up with me…..

I've got the sadz. My parents had to leave a day early because the weather is supposed to get bad at their house tonight. I'm ready to be unpregnant so that they will be back. I'm such a baby.
One of my nipples started leaking last night...not much, but enough for me to get out of bed and DH to ask what happened to my shirt while I slept. Yay.......

I was literally staring at the ceiling for periods throughout the night... no tips on good sleep. Woke up to ANOTHER foot of snow here in snowy northern MA- however, so glad I don't have to shovel! Trying to figure out what to make for dinner tonight, want to treat DH to something nice since he made dinner for my sister and I last night and we basically got to lay around on the couch watching the DIY network doing a whole lot of nothing
@kendra1992, I sleep with a pillow between my legs, a hugger between my boobs and under my belly, and a Tempurpedic head pillow. I switch from both sides and my back throughout the night. My midwife said it is safe to sleep on my back as long as I'm comfortable and not in active labor.
How are you sleeping now and how are you used to sleeping? Also, have you been to or thought about seeing a chiropractor? I started going back last week and haven't slept better.
I thought DH was coming home from his work thing today, but found out yesterday he doesn't come home until Monday, and not until dinner time. Nooooo! It's cold out and I don't feel like dragging the kids anywhere, but I think I have to or we'll all go crazy.
1. SO and I are in a much better place since he agreed to work on things. We're communicating better, spending more time together, he's making a lot more effort to help me with DD, and he's been so much nicer! The past few months were hard, but I'm so happy we're finally making progress! 2. I want to go to Food Lion and stock up on clearance candy, but I really don't feel like getting ready (putting a bra on) so I can go to the store :/
No I was just wondering if that would work I have just been lining up normal pillows lol.
Would one of those might help to like hug or to set behind my back?
Mine helps with my back. I lay on my side/stomach, put one leg over the pillow, and rest my bump on it. It's the only way I can sleep now. I think I found mine at Target for only $10 and its really comfortable!

How do you roll over with all that stuff? I gave up on the body pillow because rolling over hurts anyways, but trying to take the pillow with me hurts even worse.
I've gotten to where I scrunch up part of my comforter and put it between my legs and/or under my belly. My husband has to use his own blanket and the bed is a mess in the morning, but it helps slightly.
@kendra1992 this is how I sleep Contoured neck pillow behind my head, body pillow is now what I use under my belly and to snuggle with, pillow in between my legs, Boppy wedge pillow to wedge under my right hip to keep me slightly turned when lying on my back, pillow behind my back as well. I still don't sleep "well" but I guess it's better than nothing. I get hip pain about 3x a week and my back is constantly hurting still.

The leg pillow kind of remains stationary. I sleep with my legs pretty straight. The hugger is the only thing that moves and I use it mostly to keep me from rolling too far over onto my stomach.

Wow you can still roll over with your legs straight? Lol. I have to curl up into a ball to roll over or I get sharp pains in my sides. Oh well! I'll be able to roll over pain free when the baby comes! If he ever lets me lay down to sleep.
My sis referred me to the college to get my taxes done for free yesterday. I spent 6 hrs there and was sitting on a wood bench most of the time. (Talk about back pain). I had no idea it would take that long! When I got home after 6pm the whole house was clean and Dh had made dinner and did the crap load of dishes that were sitting there. I was so happy he did that for me. Hope everyone had a great valentines day!

That sounds like the best Valentine's gift. If only SO could cook!

I'm lucky dh is actually better at cooking than I am. So he normally cooks all weekend when he's off.

Right now I have one of those fancy memory foam pillows for my head and two pillows I line up as a body pillow and between my knees and under my belly tucked a little. I move from side to side because my shoulders hurt but never fails if I sleep on my back I'm in pain and the baby will ALWAYS wake me up kicking when I'm on my back. Even though she does at 5am anyway. Sigh. Is it may
I have a crazy obsession with my pillows...so much so that I needed to bring both with me on vacation. I use a contour memory foam pillow for my head and the boppy cuddle pillow for in between my legs and cuddle it around my chest. I heard a lot of great things about full length body pillows, but I know that I move too much during the night for those. Hopefully you will find something that works for you! I hate that you're in pain when you sleep.
DH and I don't "do" Valentine's Day. We just spend the day doing nothing important and order dinner. The best thing that happened was when DH caught me with my finger up my nose and, without missing a beat, sang "I ain't sayin she's a gold digger!" I almost peed laughing.
Random fact: today we are going for dinner to celebrate his GRANDMAS 60th bday.... My MOM turned 56 on the 12th. Wut?
@kendra1992 I don't know if it would be comfortable at night but I have a maternity support band that helps during the day with back and leg pain. Also my body pillow helps me sleep. I still roll over on my back but just turn back to my side whenever I wake up.

DHs maternal grandma was 19 when she gave birth to my MIL. My MIL was 17 when she gave birth to DH. DH is 24 and I'm 25 so no real age gap there (I swear I'm not a cougar!) His maternal grandmother gave birth to DHs aunt and uncle 1 and 2 years after DH was born. I still have a hard time not thinking of them as cousins since they are younger. His family tree gets a bit confusing to explain to people.
Sorry to be a Debbie Downer but, I'm feeling really overwhelmed lately with all the doctor's bills. They don't have very much information on them and I have to call about every one. H is having some medical issues, we have to pay our taxes and I have all these random bills, I feel like I'm bleeding money and the leg work involved in making sure I'm paying the correct bills is stressing me out so much!
I went out to the car a little bit ago to go to the store, and there was a huge patio umbrella stuck under it. It was really windy lastnight, so that explains how it got there, but wtf am I supposed to do with someone's random patio umbrella?

So sorry you've got all that to deal with! Sounds overwhelming. Sounds like you deserve a bubble bath!

I feel ya, lady. I always have something wrong with me. Dr bills are regular, like a light bill. I hate when they don't have much info on them!! My OB office was billing the wrong insurance for the longest and I had no clue... Frustrating!

Maybe lay it out by the street so the owner could see it and pick it up? Unless it's trash day. Or trash it if it's ruined I guess.
