Today is my mother's 51st birthday. So, Happy Birthday, Mom!!!! <3 nbsp="" p="">
She is home from the hospital right now, and has been feeling well enough to eat a little, which is great news! Now she can enjoy some birthday dinner and cake! She goes back on the 21st for round 2 of chemo, and I'm hoping it's a little easier on her this time..(But still effective!)
I am 34 weeks now. Babies will be born in 2 weeks +6 days. WOW! The time is creeping, yet flying by. I am pretty miserable at this point, lol. When I stand up I feel like I have a ton of bricks in my stomach crushing my pelvic bones..lol.
They are monitoring me very closely now. I go twice a week. This is because last Tuesday when they did a growth scan Baby B (Alaina) had fallen behind on growth. Now, they want to make sure the babies are both showing no signs of distress, and also, make sure their cords still have good flow, and that their heartbeats are good. It's sort of a pain in the behind to drive all the way down there twice a week, but totally worth it. It gives me a little more peace of mind with much less time between appointments...and to be honest, it's making the time go a little faster anyways. As long as things remain status quo, (babies look safe, and no signs of TTTS develop) then they will let me continue until our scheduled eviction date.
The girl's hospital bag is packed. I'm working on mine. Some of the stuff is hard to pack ahead of time, because it's stuff that I use/wear on a daily basis.
We have most everything we need now for the babies except for the twin nursing pillow. Gotta get it! I've been filling most of my free time with mindless things, and searching for deals on cloth diapers. We are gonna give it our all and try to cloth diaper them! My main driving factor----- savings. However, the fact that it's good for the environment and their little bums makes it even more worth it. If it were just the savings alone I'd probably find other ways to save.
My belly is quite huge now. I look forward to not having to waddle everywhere. I'll post pics soon.
