Oh i hope you feel better soon. Doesn't getting sick now seem so much worse than you would normally feel when sick? When we were in Hawaii we went ocean fishing - I have never ever had motion sickness before in my life (and I never really had MS either with my pregncies) but it must have been the combination of the two - I was over the toilet for 3 hours! Finally I managed to keep some gravol down and was able to enjoy the remaining 4 hours!

Congrats on getting a date, hard to believe there is only 10 weeks left!!! Do you have all the stuff you need? I am not taking any iron, but I am a good meat eatter so maybe I am fine.

I am feeling alright - some days I don't know how I am going to make another 10 weeks - I feel like there is a tonne of weight on my pelvic floor and that everything is slowly moving downwards. yikes. Did you have physio?

 AWWWW! You look so cute!!!

buninoven - Friday, 13 June
I am over my mopies! Gotta love those hormones! We met with the nursing coordinator today and got the paperwork and birthplan togeather! We had our hospital tour last night too. We are officially ready!

Bummer to hear your back is giving you trouble again! Less than 100 days for the both of us.....we are almost there!!! Just a little while longer and the back will be better and the uncomfortable stuff will be all over!! You have been really brave through all of this!!I think this very last trimester is going to be rough, but it is only for a short time now compared with how far we have come now.

Do you go through days when the kids are super quiet? My boy is just an occasional thump. My girl is still the busy one.

Feel better soon! Take care!!!!! :) :)

Oh ya, I checked out your belly pics - and you look good. I would say we are probably about the same. Most people are surprised that I am 6 months along with twins. The odd person asks if I am due soon (I think because I was buying baby wipes and cream at the pharmacy - little did she know I needed it at home)!

twinstwice - Thursday, 12 June
I totally understand, I am exhausted by noon and I am not doing much during the day. It is frustrating when I used to be so active. My husband just reminded me that last time I would nap for 1-3 hours everyday for the last couple months (I was complaining to him about being so tired - I forgot that I napped last time) so maybe I have to get back to doing that when the girls go down!

BTW - my girls are good sleepers now, but it was a long hard haul for the first year - so I would love to send some good sleep luck your way but I don't think you would want it from me.

 Wow, I would say your belly looks great! I am 27 Weeks and I think my belly is HUGE!!

yeah ive felt hard things sticking out and moving. my feet jsut hurt they feel like sausages. what do they do for your back?? ive has a light sciatica pains in my butt the other day but i was on my feet all day and helping my sister move things.

twinstwice - Wednesday, 11 June
I hope that physio goes well (that's what I do when I am not being a mom - but more sports stuff).

Our holiday is good, tho the weather not so good. Oh well, I found a drop in tot gym today and we have made it to a few parks. It has also taken a bit to get our sleep worked out - I don't get it, its only a one hour difference. Oh well, they finally slept 12 hours last night and thru a wicked thunderstorm as well!

It is getting increasingly difficult to move about!

buninoven - Wednesday, 11 June
Ugh! I am having a mopey day. I love that all this is going on but today I am giving in to the big and uncomfortable feeling. I am still very happy to be here, i just don't recognise my figure anymore. I feel like I am in someone elses body. Every thing looks so big and weird :) not bad just weird. Everyone at work is talking about losing weight and getting skinny for summer and working out. I am thinking, I am going to go home and eat something and get bigger. It is just so weird to make that transition! I know its all to help the babies get bigger & healthy its just strange to not be trying to get skinny!

Other than the mopies, I feel great! :) We have the hospital tour tomarrow night. That will be fun!

How are you feeling?? Take care!!!

spadoinkle - Wednesday, 11 June
yeah its crazy. i was talking to a girl at work and my stomach was moving like crazy.. people can see it very easily. how are you feeling? my only complaint its my feet are huge by the end of the day i need better shoes oh and its 90 something degrees..not gonna be a fun summer heheh..

I went to the Dr today I was having big time braxton hicks and super stabbing pains way up in there and cramping too. It started and then it was so painful it took my breath away. Yuck! They checked my cervix and it was high and closed up tight yay! She said it was the kids head butting my cervix over and over and not to worry! Just go lay down and they will ease off, and they did! That was scary!

They measured me again and you are not going to believe this, but I measured 37 weeks!!!!!!!!! How can I grow 3 weeks in one week??????? This is CRAZY! If I keep this rate up I will be 40 weeks by next week!!

My grandpa was a twin but they said that it doesn't follow that side of the family, it follows the women. They think because I am old the system gets glitches in it and can pop out more than one egg and I got to be one of the lucky ones!

My baby shower is July 27th, we may get that , but I would rather have all of that paid time off! You are still the lucky one!

Are you having many of the braxtons?

No, no more kids for me. This is enough, we wanted 2 and if there is a chance of twins again whoah! No, I will be just thrilled with the 2 I have! How about you? We will have just enough bedrooms for two if we had more we would have to move or add on even more. After that mornig sickness, no way!! :) Take care!!

Oh yeah, they won't schedule my inducion or c-section until Sept. 8th!! Brutal! That puts me at 38 weeks, there is no way I am going that long, I will blow up by then! It'll get messy! At 36 weeks I am going to get the massage that brings on labor and start running stairs at the stadium! :)

buninoven - Monday, 9 June
I am so happy to hear you are feeling better! Do you have air conditioning there?

The weather here is pretty nice this weekend around 70 degrees. Perfect big mama weather. I am amazed how tired I get so quickly. I was washing some windows and I was pooped! I napped for 2 hours!

Its not so bad being at work, all I do is pretty much sit there. They are really spoiling me. I could sit at home and not get paid or sit at work and get paid. Luckily I live 5 minutes from the hospital I work at so I napp at lunchtime for an hour every day and then go back and sit at work. WoW! I told my hubby if we have any more kids we need to move to London, that is an awsome deal!!

I haven't felt any elbows yet. My belly button still hasn't popped out yet either. It sure is fun when they both get going in there. It is starting to get predictable when they will start moving. That's a big releif. I have a feeling there are going to be lots of nights awake. They are busy at night.

I just gave my address list to my friend for the baby shower. There are about 40ish of them! So I have slowed down on the shopping until after the shower.

Good luck on the house! So exciting! Our big construction is starting next week too! Our house will be a disaster zone for a while. Hubby promised it would be done before the kids get here. At least that is his intention.

I am outgrowing all of my cute maternity clothes. I am going to have to advance to the tents here soon. It feels like it is doubleing in size every couple of days! Ok , not doubling but I feel huge! Thank goodness for my water aerobics class. It feels really good to be in the water and get the weight off of my back. If you get the chance to go to the pool I am sure your back will love it!! My back is doing pretty well, I can't complain. I am just miserable still with the heartburn. Any time I bend over to pick something up , boom its in my throat. I have to sleep most nights propped up. I have tried all of the medicines but they only work for a little while. I get heartburn from drinking a glass of water!! They won't sign me off for heartburn darn it! :) Have a great week!!

I will probably have some scans in the summer to monitor their growth, especially near the end but nothing is scheduled yet.

My twins have been kicking like crazy!!! There are times it feels like a regular party in there, and yes, I too feel knees, heads, elbows, etc. Good thing when the roll over to be head up they don't stay that way too long as it is so uncomfortable against my ribs!

Is your back better?

buninoven - Saturday, 7 June
Oh man! You have 99 days to go!!! Wow!! The dr said if I continue to stay healthy they won't sign me off work! Bummer! She also said it could change any day though too. She said 36 weeks will be when I stop and she will sign me off then. I wnt them out around there anyway. If I have them in august they will be in the same school grade as 3 of my best friends kids and my sister in laws's. It would be nice to have them around the last week of august otherwise I will have them older for their grade in school. I just can't wait to see who they look like. My girl is little and petite and the boy has big feet and big features. How is your back now that you are off? Have a great weekend!

spadoinkle - Saturday, 7 June
99 days to go!

cathyb - Thursday, 5 June
Thanks you and good luck! I'll keep praying.

buninoven - Thursday, 5 June
Oh I am happy it went well for you! Yes, I get that movement when it feels like they are about to crawl out too! Creepy huh!

My boy had the hiccups for the first time last night, it felt super cool! It was this constant twitch for a couple of minutes. I haven't felt it on the girl yet! I am 24 weeks and I measured 34 weeks! I told you I am huge!! Both of the heartrates were 153.

They are both head down facing my spine and the feet are under my ribs. I just can't even imagine it! There was one picture where the boy streched his leg out and pushed his sister out of the view. It was really cute. Are you feeling any contractions? We went to a parenting class tonight and met our soon to be pediatrician. Are you all finished with classes? The class was pretty boring, all of the stuff I have heard a million times. Next week we get to tour the hospital. Enjoy your rest!! I am so happy for you!! Yayyy!! :)

I'm on bed rest now because my daughter was born at 28 weeks. I'm not showing any signs of premature labour yet but the doctors are doing this as a precaution so hopefully everything works out!!

ellianna88 - Wednesday, 4 June
I'm feeling pretty good for the most part. I can't believe how big I already am. It's crazy lol. I better not say anything though since I can only get bigger. Haha. I've been on partial bed rest since 19 weeks. It's not that bad though I only have to lay down for 4 hours a day. It's pretty hard on my 2 year old daughter though. I think she's getting pretty bored of mommy laying down.

twinstwice - Tuesday, 3 June
I am glad you have such a good doc! Mine are like that too, last time it was basically my decision to go off and he agreed so he signed all the papers. I think you should enjoy wanting to stay in bed right now. I think the nesting will sink in a bit and you will want to do a bunch of stuff, just remember to do things in moderation.

I have had a bit of a bout of motivation today, simply because I leave tomorrow and I have heaps of laundry to do! I think I will leave the housework for my husband since he isn't coming until later.

I saw my doc today (I posted on 24-28 weeks) and all is well!

Cheers, take care, I will let you know how the holidays are going.

ellianna88 - Tuesday, 3 June
Same due date, wow. I'm having a boy and a girl too. I feel the boy way more often that I feel the girl. How's your pregnancy going so far??

buninoven - Tuesday, 3 June
How was your appointment?? Are you cleared for your back to be off of work?? I have my big scan tomarrow! Got to go, hubbys home! Take care!!

twinstwice - Monday, 2 June
How are you feeling? Are you able to walk better now? I ended up with a nasty cold for a day last week and it wiped me out! I didn't think I would make it to my last day at work but I felt way better by the next day so I was able to go in. Though I am battling a major lack of motivation with some excessive fatigue.. I agree, I hate not being able to do the things I want to do (and even those I don't want to do). I hope that after my holiday I can find some motivation for a month and get some much needed things done around the house before the babes come.
