Randoms!
I’m currently at the stage where I’m not sure if my husband genuinely deserves to be murdered or if I’m just an angry pregnant lady. Probably a little of both? I’m sending him a to-do list when I am at work today. And if he has any survival skills he’ll take a good crack at it.

I woke up at 4 with terrible cramps and back cramps. Kept me up for like an hour but luckily I was able to fall back asleep. Sigh. My due date is tomorrow and induction is Wednesday so I guess I’ll just truck along until then

amesie yes! I go in for Cervadil tonight and should start pitocin tomorrow morning. A little over 24 hours left with an inside baby. You are on the home stretch, too! Yay! snowyowl I do the pregnancy check in on one of my other BMBs and I always post a meme with it. This was today's and it felt appropriate for you 😂😂

Good morning! I got some sleep last night. When MH gets in from bringing G to the bus we are going to have some coffee. After coffee, cleaning!

marygracerich, did your DS have a better night (I always feel weird typing "I" as an initial for a name!) or did your DH take him more? DH and I finally talked names some more last night. I'm...uh, not really a fan....of the names he picks. I just don't know where he is coming from with them! I feel like girl names have so much potential and the ones he picks just are not attractive to me. But he is open to several of mine, so that's sort of where we are. I don't want to just shoot down all of his but really can't see us choosing any of his final picks. He made the final decision on DS's name so I will feel OK mostly being the one to pick one for DD. There is one name we both really like but would feel weird naming a baby by that name considering her birthday might be close to (and/or even on!) Valentine's Day. (Valentina, in case you can't figure it out!) My ribs are still killing me. I had a hard time staying comfortable while trying to sleep last night.

easternshoregirl it was a combination of both. MH is off today so he did the 11pm feeding so I slept from 9:30-11. Then little man fell asleep 12-3. He ate at 3 and was asleep again by 3:30 until 6:45 this morning. So I got decent stretches of sleep and I was able to go to bed earlier.

Good morning! It's due date day here! I was having some cramping this morning but of course that petered out It's a nasty rainy day here and I woke up without any energy. I'm going to the chiropractor now for my third round of induction chiropractic. Jeez. This kid is so comfy in there. I don't even have my next appt until Friday at 40+4 so that is when they will schedule induction I guess. I would really rather not be induced, I had pitocin with DD and it really sucked the big one. I've not had labor without it though so it could be like that regardless. Good luck peachesncream!

I’m tired (shocking). I ran to the bank quick while MIL watched the kids. I was sort of hoping for a nap but it’s almost time for the twins to eat again. 🤷🏻♀️

Two sets of our friends had twins and both ended up going to the one up both up eating schedule. This makes sense to me but also would be hard if one is restfully sleeping to disturb that peace!

Yeah we do the one up both up, but by the time both have eaten, been changed, swaddled etc it’s stupidly close to when they need to eat again 🙈 eventually their feeds will stretch out and that will be a relief.

Happy Monday! 38 weeks today and DD2 has no plans so far to make her debut. DD1 was sick all weekend. Figures, when the weather breaks and it’s like 45 out, she gets a fever. We did go outside quite a bit because fresh air. I got an email from daycare saying a kid in her class tested positive for influenza. So now, we just have to keep an eye on her. Not the best time to be getting sick! Good luck, peachesncream!!

Good luck peachesncream! Hope today is the day for both amesie and benandjerrys! Last night was a rough night. Was just at the hospital for little one’s bilirubin test. Now waiting at the doctor for his first appointment. The doctor is running behind, as per usual. But really is a great doctor. I was in the hospital for a day and a half and he came to check on us 3 times. He happened to be in the hospital checking on another patient when I was admitted (10pm) and then stayed for the birth (1:30am). So I guess it’s not a big deal to wait an hour for an appointment

DD4 was alert so I was talking to her and she was giving me the biggest smiles. I know they aren’t true social smiles, but it really seemed like a reaction to me. Totally made my day and I managed to get some on video.

I smell like bleach 😂I just scrubbed my kitchen from top to bottom. I even did the grout on the tile floor on my hands and knees. Next up, the dining room.

I feel like once you get through the first year of twins you can handle just about anything. Like you will always have the right frame of mind on what really matters/is hard and what is not. All the coffee and good vibes to you. ☕️☕️

That is crazy impressive for being newly postpartum. Thanks! Considering it has been months since I truly scrubbed my house, it needed to be done. I am currently mopping my dining room floor with Murphy’s oil soap. I literally moved all of my furniture out of the dining room so I can clean the floors. Maybe someday I will be caught up. Lol. ETA: also keep in mind that I live in a 1,000 square foot condo so not that much surface area to clean so maybe not that impressive. 😂

I am so so so nauseous today. Nothing is sitting well in my stomach 😞 I’m contemplating taking a zofran just so I can feel halfway human today.
Again, i would get excited that this could mean labor is right around the corner, but I’ve learned my lesson this past week 😑
