I am officially 8 MONTHS PREGNANT today!!! WOOHOO!!
I can't believe in no more then 5 weeks I will have the twins!!
It seems to have flown by but there has been SO much going on since the day we found out that has helped time fly. The biggest of all being every pregnant woman's worst nightmare...moving. Let alone move literally across the country from coast to coast! But here we are 5 months later, just 5 weeks away from meeting our new babies!!
Jimmy starts leave today up until my Mom comes to be able to be home with me, to not only help me with the girls and the house but for all of us to enjoy these last few weeks as being a family of 5. My Mom and sister Carly fly in on July 7th and will be here until August. So once my they come Jimmy will go back to work, then when I have the twins he gets his 2 weeks paternity leave and will be home again! So yesterday was the last full day alone.
I am SO excited for my mom and sister to get out here. The girls have missed Mammy and Aunt Carly!! I also just found out yesterday that when I have the babies my brother Robbie will be flying out as well to meet the twins!! He was there when I had Audri but he was in bootcamp when I had Ella and was in Afghanistan when I had Paisley so its going to be awesome to have him here to meet his 4th niece and FIRST nephew!!!
I had my doctors appointment last friday. My fundal height was 39 weeks..ahhh lol
My doctor didn't want to do an internal because she didn't want to stir anything up but friday I will start getting internals at every appointment. I get an ultrasound at EVERY doctors appointment and of course little lady was laying breech but little man was head down...as of the other day I did feel her flip back and can feel her head down!! She is VERY low, so low the doctor said she will probably fly out when its time to deliver her lol Everything including the babies looked great!! I go on July 3rd for another growth scan to see what their weights are and positions- I will be 34 weeks then. I just can't explain how much I love my doctor, just to have seen the same doctor since we got here and only her has been amazing! I love that she knows who I am, I actually feel like a patient and a person and not a number like they make you feel at Lejeune. Keeping my fingers and legs crossed that these babies stay in for at least another 3 weeks so my doctor can deliver me!
Im feeling ok. Im at that point where I'm just exhausted and tired from carrying around so much weight and not sleeping. like i had mentioned little lady is VERY low and her brother is right on top of her pushing her down further so the pain gets quite intense at times. Bending down is quite hard and painful as well, getting up off the couch or out of bed is a work out-I keep having this nightmare that I'm trying so hard to get out of bed or off the couch that my water breaks lol
The swelling isn't too bad, you can see my feet/ankles are slowly but surely "filling out" but it doesn't look too bad until night time and then my soon to be cankles start to show their presence :( My belly is also so low that the bottom of my belly is sticking out of shirts...the tops of the shirts are baggy but the bottoms are stretched out!!
Im just praying all this lets up on me soon...im ready for a full nights sleep and to be comfortable...hahahaha who am I kidding...Im not going to get that for god knows how long!!!
5 weeks left MAX!!!!
