Idk if I'm just being dramatic but I'm pretty sure my HG is worse this pregnancy, and given that I'm pregnant with spontaneous triplets that would kind of make sense. I can barely keep my eyes open. I got 32 oz of water down today which feels Herculean. I'm already down 11 lbs and I'm only 11 weeks along.

I feel so useless and like a bad mom to my kids. I just lay in bed on my phone after working and bed rot. Thank God I work from home so I can at least puke in my own home, but my easy peezy job uses the meager bit of energy I have.

Last time my only responsibility was to go to work and survive. But this time I feel so bad neglecting my kids :( I hate this

Hello friends.

We are expecting triplets. Very nervous about that but trying not to think about it.

We currently have a paid off 4-runner and a 96 Tacoma. Our 4-runner has the optional third row but "third row" is very generous and when it's up we have almost no storage space. So! We are looking at bigger cars.

We are NOT minivan haters. That said, we are moving back to the Midwest and buying a house on a dirt road, so we definitely need something that can handle that, and we also tow things fairly often. Those combined knock mini vans out we think.

Any thoughts/experiences with suburbans or Yukons? Or something else in that vein? Sequoias? Ford Expedition Max? Our max budget is $70k, definitely looking more at the used market to try to stay well under that.

Any thoughts or experiences?

I used to think the Tragedeigh trend was something that started with Gen X and millennials giving their kids weird names. But I work in case management with a mostly elderly population now, and I come across the most bizarre spellings of common names from that era all the time! And they get SO upset if I don't pronounce it like the common spelling, even if it's bizarrely spelled. (Boomers smh). I suppose there's the possibility that some of their parents didn't know how to spell some of these names, but I'm not convinced it's all of them.

I'm pregnant with spontaneous triplets, and the exhaustion and HG are unreal. I've already been to the ER for fluids once. I can barely keep my eyes open at work. I'm literally taking a meeting from my bed right now and plan on sleeping through this seminar (about managing stress lol).

I have absolutely no idea how I'm supposed to survive this for the next however many months. I had HG with my daughter that was quite severe, and idk that this is worse but the EXHAUSTION oh my gosh. It's unreal. I feel like I have cement blocks on my feet and eyelids. Meanwhile my 2 year old and 3 year old have pink eye (from school/each other) which means eye drops 4x/day each. And my husband is out of the country this week for work.

Anyway I think I'm approaching a nervous break, except I'm too tired to generate the frenetic energy needed for a nervous break. Any advice? Solidarity?
