I have insomnia. Well, it's not quite insomnia, but it is definitely a close cousin. I wake up at 4ish to pee, can't get back to sleep, then get hungry so I get a snack, and can't lie right back down because I'll get heartburn, so I have to stay up a bit and then I never go back to sleep. Good stuff.
I am not complaining, because I know that I am so lucky to be pregnant and to be having such a healthy twin pregnancy - but I'm tired. I'm really tired.
We got 2 carseats a few weeks ago from a friend. I have found that at 4:30am when I'm up and tired, they kind of mock me as if to say "you think you're tired now - just you wait!"...it's very intimidating.
This week as part of the twin preparation, we traded in our little car (bought when I was pregnant with our son 2 years ago) and got a minivan. At least I can just give up trying to be cool because that ship has clearly sailed!
I keep wishing and hoping for all of my friends who are undergoing fertility treatments. I feel so lucky to be on the other side of all of that. If anyone reading this has any luck, please leave a comment.
Incase you didn't know, and to be cautious...car seats have expiration dates because the plastic breaks down in the sun/heat. (not saying the ones you got are expired, but it's always a good fact to know!)

thanks for that! we have a 2 year old and have been through the carseat saga already. personally, i think the expiry is a bit of a sham, but also dont want to take any chances. these ones are well within their "best before" period and we know they've never been in an accident, which is another caution with used seats.
