2. Can you do a chore swap with a friend? Or an IOU? That sounds painful and we're due around the same time and I am with you - there is only so much I can do before I am in pain. I don't have SPD so I feel for you.
1) I find I'm a lot more "cuddly" than I was pre-pregnancy. I wouldn't call it clingy, but I can't just sit next to him on the couch and watch TV anymore. I like to cuddle up with him on the couch. I was also never much for public displays of affection before the pregnancy and now I've found that I'm always holding his hand in public (which he enjoys because he was always a hand holder and I wasn't) or walking arm in arm.
I got very clingy. It was so bad that if I was awake when he'd leave for classes (law student and he'd have 10 hour days 2x a week) I would bawl until I fell asleep again. It was awful.
I'm not pregnant now, but yes I got very clingy to my husband when I was pregnant. It got to the point where I was a little afraid of being home alone (which may have been a symptom of my anxiety disorder).
Wear a support belt? Better yet, have him make time? Could you have a friend or relative do it? Perhaps trade favors (something you can actually do)? Hmm... I'll have to keep this idea in mind-- I'm sure I could get a friend to clean my entire house for a homemade cheesecake. :)
Meanwhile, until you can come up with a vacuuming solution, perhaps get some anti-allergen masks?

I'm a little afraid of being home alone too. I just want him HERE, y'know?
