I'm a normal pregnant woman! Had another u/s and bloodtest today. Both went fine and Dr. P says I only have to do 3 more shots and I am done. Wooooooooooooooooo HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I cannot tell you how nice that is to hear. Those PIO shots get really old.
Ladies I have to tell you that a twin pregnancy is a whole new adventure. I am MUCH sicker, more exhausted and quite visibly pregnant already. I also have these periods where I feel like I can't get enough air into my body. I can breathe fine but feel like I need to breathe deep constantly. Makes it hard to sleep. I have to be really careful about my diet to make sure the babies grow big and don't come premature. I had to change doctors because my midwife can't take on a twin pregnancy. That was really sad. I haven't really settled with anyone yet and feel like I am on my own.
I've been baby shopping and I don't know where to start. What do I need 2 of? All those cute pink strollers aren't going to work. I need a big honkin double stroller. My latest challenge is finding 2 infant seats that will fit in my car and allow the boys to get into the back. The only one that might work is orange. And the pink "guestroom" that I've had ready for a DD is the smallest room in the house. I might need to move DS in there and buy him a bunkbed. Sigh......
I don't mean to say that it won't be wonderful. I know when they are older it will be great although I hope they don't gang up on me when they are teenagers! It's just that I am scared of the next 2 years. It is very overwhelming. Not something to be taken on lightly.
