When should I be concerned about my discomfort?

I am 31w with di/di twins and I am beyond uncomfortable. Every week feels twice as hard as the last. There is not a position I can get comfortable in, my back is constantly hurting, and last night I felt some slight cramping (like uterine stretching, very faint, very dull). I am just wondering if this is all normal, are there warning signs you had before you went into labor?

Any advice is welcome! Thanks!!

30 weeks and miserable

Week 30 hit me like a train physically. It was so sudden, like literally over night. I was doing great on Sunday for Mother’s Day, obviously slowing down and tired, but by Monday night I’m crying by my lack of mobility and everywhere is so achy. I have a scheduled c section at 37w6d and I’m trying to remain positive. I feel like I’m only comfortable lying down or in a pool, which of course is not an option all time.

Any advice?!

Mother’s Day blues

Hey y’all,

I am just wondering if anyone else is feeling this way today. I spent years battling infertility, multiple rounds of IVF, one miracle euploid that split into twins. I’m now 29 weeks pregnant, sitting in my babies’ nursery feeling them kick, but cannot shake the sense of sadness from Mother’s Day.

This honestly is so unexpected but I feel like the trauma from the last years, especially surrounding this day, just won’t leave me. I feel crazy even saying this but idk if I’ll ever associate Mother’s Day without the sense of dread or reliving the sadness I felt for years about this.

I am very grateful and generally very happy and optimistic person, but this caught me completely off guard.
