The sneezing/coughing/getting up quickly pain isn't the same as Braxton hicks...it's more like pulling a muscle. BH contractions usually don't hurt and they feel almost the same as a regular contraction except no pain and they are usually random.

DH and I decided to start a charm bracelet for our LO. Thinking we will keep filling it until she's an adult at some event (wedding, graduation, or something like that). We decided to go with Pandora and the first charm we got is a little baby booty with a pink gem (tough to see in this pic tho) The boys are going to give her a charm at the birth that says 'sweet sister' 
Was totally thinking the same.

Started getting the baby's room figured out. Painting the walls green next weekend and slowly starting to get the crib built and things placed. I just can't believe how fast this has gone (for me at least!)

So I had a terrible nights sleep last night...well to be fair it was my own fault. I couldn't remember the last time yesterday that I'd felt my little guy kick so I started poking him while I was lying in bed last night to get a response.....
Well I got a response and I think he was mad I woke him up! He kicked me (and hard) for a good 3 hours....guess I learned my lesson...don't wake the baby! (or to quote LOTR...."don't disturbe the water")

LOL yeah no kidding.
So is anyone else having issues getting comfortable while sleeping? I know you're not supposed to sleep on your back, but right now it's the most comfortable! Can't really sleep on my left side because I have a messed up shoulder and my right side just never seem to end up on my right side. I'm a total stomach sleeper and since I hurt my back in November I haven't been able to do that either...

yes. i feel like ive gotten a lot more uncomfortable and a lot earlier than in my other pregnancys. I def recommend those huge pregnancy pillows. DH hates them bc it takes up so much room but whatever! they are fab and well worth the $50. I even use them PP (and sometimes DH steals it 
).
If your comfortable, sleeping on your back isn't as scary a thing as it can be made out to be. If you start breathing heavy or getting lightheaded/dizzy then roll over. Your body will let you know if it's not a good position
Im to the point now where i cant breath very well laying on my back (just started the other night), otherwise i would keep on doing whatever works.

I don't sleep too well either. I thought about getting a body pillow, but I think it would just end up on the floor every night. I'm still undecided.
I convinced my husband to go in for a sleep study. His snoring was awful too. His sleep study revealed he has Obstructive Sleep Apnea (which cause his ridiculous snoring). So now he uses a CPAP and I don't have to lose sleep over his snoring anymore. Lol.

Snoring is actually a sign of something not right. Usually apnea. Having a tongue tie (even a sneaky, small tie) can cause that. Another sign of sleep apnea is if the tongue has ridges on the side.

SO glad you got him to go in to be checked! Obstructive Sleep Apnea can be life threatening if it's not treated. It puts stress on the heart. He's probably in a better mood now that he's on the CPAP right? My dad and brother both have it.

I am glad I convinced him too! While his actual OSA is relatively mild, only stopping his breathing a few times a night, his oxygen levels hit an alarming low while he slept. His levels averaged in the upper 80s during his sleep study!
He's definitely starting to feel better and the quality of his sleep improving. He's still getting used to wearing it at night and training his mouth to stay closed but things are definitely looking up!
