36 weeks and Bed rest

May 8, 2013

35 weeks

Well, I’ve made it this far, the babies can come NOW……  did you hear that little ones?  Now is the time.

Pregnancy is no joke people.  Those who just glide through and love every minute of it, I might just punch in the face.  SO, if that was you, keep it to yourself.  Ok?  Thanks.

Grumpy much?  Nah.

I haven’t posted an update in awhile, but around 34 weeks I was having lots and lots of contractions so I went to the hospital to be monitored.  The contractions weren’t causing dilation, which is good, but I was put on bed rest at home.  This really helped.   My contractions lessened majorly, my blood pressure went down, and I felt much better overall.  Though it is hard to not do stuff around the house especially with 2 high strung boys, but DT and my mom have been a huge help.

I feel everyday, every meal, will this be it?  Are they going to come?  Of course, the longer they are in, the better.  I keep saying that over and over in my head.  I keep watching the Baby Story on TLC and every women I see in labor I am wishing I was her or thinking maybe my body will see this and decide it is time now.

DT keeps saying I don’t think you can do this any longer, your belly won’t stretch anymore, you’re too miserable, you can’t sleep.  I tell him it is all about the babies, I will be fine, but it’s nice that at least he acknowledges how hard this is and so very worth the two babies in the end.

On other news, DT and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary on Monday, making our title as “newlyweds” a bit less relevant each year.  Maybe one day I will change the blog name.

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from our wedding album.

Hope my next post is pictures of two little sweetie pies!  And if you get a chance, please say a little prayer for us!!

Maternity Pictures

April 14, 2013

I put off getting pictures taken long enough, I am officially 32 weeks along in these pictures and wow is time flying.  I wanted to take some special family maternity pictures and I think they turned out so great.  I will cherish these for a lifetime.

Sorry for the major photobomb, but I love them all, not sure how we will ever choose which ones we like best.

Baby Shower and Babies update- 29 weeks

April 3, 2013

I know I say this every time, but I still can’t believe I am having twin boys again!  When will this sink in? When they are 12? I had a 29 weeks ultrasound and the babies are doing so very well.  Growing like little weeds and moving around like crazy.  That is my favorite part [...]

Menu Plan Monday

March 4, 2013

  Last weekend we had our garage sale, it was a major success, we sold so much stuff and made room for all the baby items DT got down from the attic.  I must of had some insight years ago as I was saving all these things so very meticulously.  So, now my job is [...]

24 weeks update

February 19, 2013

Last Friday we had our 24 week ultrasound with Maternal Fetal Medicine.  I go to them every 4 weeks for a in-depth ultrasound and then an appointment with my regular OB, usually a week later.  They work together to give me and the babies the very best care possible. The babies are growing fantastically, like [...]

Menu Plan Monday

February 11, 2013

I am 24 weeks and these babies are already wearing me out, between all the painting, cleaning, organizing, moving and moving again, you’d think I’d be sleeping like a log at night, nope not the case.  Oh well it’s so worth it. I am seeing major progress and its so encouraging.  Did I mention we [...]

Menu Plan Monday

February 4, 2013

I am back to menu planning, oh how I have missed my organized household and kitchen.  Things have been crazy this pregnancy, between not feeling well and having no energy, we ate out lots, had more frozen pizza than I’d like to admit.  But I am so happy to be feeling better and back in [...]

Pink Champagne Cake

January 14, 2013

> I made this delicious and festive pink champagne cake for our family’s New Year Day feast.  Since I can’t drink any champagne right now, why not eat it? Good reason, I think. This cake was very simple to prepare, as it calls for a white cake mix, and the icing just makes this cake over [...]
