@DanaOcNy‌ - have you heard of leap weeks? My bmb was talking about them. 12 weeks is one and it can cause some regression in sleep and baby to be clingy and needy.

Or the three month growth spurt - that one was a biggie for us!

So, 12 weeks is the worse time for me to go back to work?

Well...if you wait, you risk having to deal with the 4 month sleep regression instead right when you go back like I did. Our 4 month sleep regression started around 14 weeks and seems to just be ending now.

There really isn't a good time to go back. I think at least we hit the 3 month growth spurt a little early :-/

Let's not forget I have to pee on a stick on the weekend.

me too!

Barring the appearance of AF, it seems I'll be peeing on a stick shortly before Halloween. Spooky!

To all the new mommas out there, sleep regression never goes away, as soon as you get over the 3 month, the 4 month shows up and so on and so on. Hang in there, they eventually figure it out!!! fingers crossed

I obviously don't know what you guys are talking about specifically as a non-momma, but I do have a good friend with a 6 month old who suggests and swears by the book The Wonder Weeks. She just told me about it last week and it talks about baby's brain development and when their "fussy" periods land and what developmentally is causing it. She said it has been spot on with her son. It doesn't help them not be fussy, but it can help you understand!

Got the doppler in and heard the heartbeat!!!! Registered at 171bpm, but don't know how accurate it is. Just excited!

We also told the girls tonight. After I found the baby, I wanted them to hear it so we told them. They got so excited! The youngest guessed right away! Apparently they went to some of the appointments with their mom and she knew what the doppler was. She immediately said "you have a baby in there?" It was so cute! Then she put her hand on my belly and gave me a hug. #bestmomentever

Yup! That's the leap weeks I'm taking about! I have the app and might get the book.

Finally got my bump picture taken, so I'll just post it now. I feel so huge, I honestly don't know how I'm going to get any bigger and I've got just under 2 months left.

@goatlady12 - you look amazing! it's crazy how your body will keep expanding. Every week I was like no way I'll get bigger... Oh look! I'm bigger lol. I'm only 5' and E was average size, 7#7oz 19.5 inches.

I've only been doing monthly photos. Each photo I think I look huge, then the next month comes and I think I look small in the previous picture. lol!

Just downloaded the wonder weeks app !! Thanks for the suggestions ladies! I'm guessing last weeks sleep issues was him going through a leap period. This weeks sleeplessness and crab-I-liciousness was brought to us by prednisone. Didn't take it yesterday and he was fine! Luckily no more crazy rash since Monday!
