I moved up my due date on my Amazon registry so my completion discount would be available before Prime Day next week and it says you can get 15% off 2 orders!! That's awesome that it's not a one-time shot! I can do one order soon with my stroller and second monitor camera then wait and do one closer to my due date with any other random stuff I realize I need for baby! Yeah, the two orders is nice! I've never bought anything on Prime Day. There's never anything that I need. I hope maybe our convertible carseats will be on there this year. Do you think you can you use your 15% off discount in addition to the Prime Day deals?!

I got all the rest of guest room stuff out of the nursery (now unfortunately it's just crammed in the play room instead) and played around with nursery furniture placement in there. It seems so cramped no matter how we put it. The room is just so stupidly shaped because there's a bump-out for where the shower is in the bathroom next door. I originally wanted to use this room for DS and this is exactly why I decided not to!

I'm assuming the completion discount is stackable with Prime Day deals, but since you pretty much need to buy deals as they come up it would be hard to use it on a bunch of stuff. I bought DS's convertibles on Prime Day last year. I actually bought 2 Britax Boulevard Clicktights and 2 Chicco NextFits so I could try them in our cars before deciding. Got both brands on sale and returned the Britax after deciding on the Chicco. The only other thing I bought last year was a Dohm sound machine. I want another so I'm hoping they go on sale, but I'll only buy things I actually need so I can't imagine I'll buy much.

There ended up being only one configuration for DS's room that worked because of the closet bump out on one end of his room and the only window in the room on the opposite end.

Britax Boulevard Clicktights are what I'm looking for if you happen to notice it again this year!

I've had issues with the location of the only heating/AC vent in both rooms as well.

I'm dealing with the small room situation as well. It's kind of a bummer but it is what it is. I still need to put the changing table in there.
Tonight I cleaned out some space in a cabinet and went through all my feeding stuff. Everything needs washed but it's in its place for now.

Anyone else have their energy level change suddenly around 24-25 weeks? I feel like I had so much energy up until this week, and now I can barely make it until noon without a nap. Even in the 2,000 degree weather last week I took DS to either the zoo or park every day. I feel like it's too early to be this tired.

killertofu - No, but I never got that 2nd tri "energy boost" some moms get. Maybe you got that for a bit and now your energy is crashing again? I just stay tired all the way through.

killertofuI had a spell of exhaustion around 20 weeks but nothing crazy new. I feel like I don't notice much of the exhaustion since I'm always exhausted with these kids. I have literally only enjoyed like 2 naps since being pregnant and that's because I was on vacation and had someone watching DD and another we fell asleep in car while driving. I'd love a nap in general.

I just realized that there are only 3 more "big" paychecks left after today before our EDD. But there is always a chance he can come before that 3rd. That is such a scary thought for me right now. 😱

PSA: Pink Blush Maternity is having a 50% off clearance sale today, code SALEONSALE I got two tops, two bottoms and a robe for $55! Their site is slow, but the sale is worth it.

That might be it. I felt amazing for a bit there. Better than a lot of my non-pregnant days. Should have known it wasn't going to last long 😄

killertofu I had a tiny bit of energy come back somewhere along in the 2nd tri (where I was going through closets and getting rid of tons of stuff and actually cleaning out my basement 😄), but for the most part I've been pretty tired the whole way through. I could only work on low impact projects for up to a few hours and I'd be toast the rest of the day! Honestly, so far I'm feeling my best now in the 3rd tri which is weird. I feel like all of my aches and pains are more manageable just recently than they have been all along. I still tire easily, but that's to be expected!

Well, I tried to go to bed early last night cause I was beat. Then I've woken up once to pee, twice with a painful toe cramp (figured I may as well pee at the second one of these too), and now baby is having an early morning party that is keeping me awake while the darn sun is coming up already....
Figures - I try to get some extra sleep and somehow get even less.

Figures - I try to get some extra sleep and somehow get even less. That always happens to me too! Last night I had swelling so bad in my legs and feet it was almost painful. I never swelled at all with DD (also a September baby) so it was surprising, but we've suddenly had super hot weather after being in the 70's for awhile. My DH also said he felt like he was kind of swollen from the heat so that made me feel a little better. I still feel kind of swollen this morning 😒

Thanks! They gave me the unflavored kind. So nasty. I'm also soooo late and I hate that feeling. DD threw a tantrum about her dad being gone and refused shoes or clothes. And traffic just kept making my ETA go later and later. Let's just hope I pass. Baby boy is starting to go wild. The sugar must have reached him.

pixiepink24 - yeah, unflavored does sound kind of unpleasant! I've never heard of that as an option.
