30 weeks today!!!
Published by Kerry | Filed under Pregnancy Milestones
Not much to report today (and the boys are still the size of squashes…or is it squash…). I wasn’t feeling very well yesterday, so we didn’t end up eating the delicious meal that Melissa made for us – but we plan on eating it tonight, and I can’t wait! Photos to follow…
I am VERY excited to be 30 weeks today, but man, I have been feeling like total poo the last few days. These little ones are taking over my body in every way, shape, and form. I usually have one baby in my rib cage and one in my pelvic bone, so you can imagine how uncomfortable that is! They are making it hard to breathe, to sit up to eat, to lay down and eat, to sleep, to be awake – you name it. People are probably wondering how someone on bed rest can be so.damn.tired, but I’m telling you that it’s possible. My back is freakin’ killing me, the restless legs thing is going to make me go crazy, and the only thing that helps with these things is getting up and walking around – two things I’m not allowed to do.
But – I’m 30 weeks pregnant today!!! =) Best case scenario is that we schedule a c-section for sometime around 6.5 weeks from today (we’ll find out more about that at our appointment next Wednesday), and worst case scenario is that the boys decide to come before that. If I were a betting woman (and I am…sometimes), I would put my money on the BoGo coming around the week of March 9th (which would put me at 33.5 weeks). I don’t know why, I just have a feeling. But I know that there is NO WAY these babies are staying put until April…call it mother’s intuition, but you can mark my words. I sure hope I’m wrong, but we’ll see.

I’m sorry buddy. I hope they take a few weeks to do this, but hopefully they’ll drop eventually and at least make it easier for you to breathe. I have a whole new world of respect for you not going nuts on bedrest.

Yeah for 30 weeks! I FEEL your pain. I hope you see glimpses of relief every now and then. (let’s be honest though, we both know we won’t!) lol. I’m going to be so envious when you have your boys before me. I’ve been begging my dr to take me at 36 weeks!
