Hi!
All I have to say for those of you who keep saying how fast this pregnancy has gone by - *SMACK*. This last part is dragging its happy little ass and I want to cry. I must say that being pregnant is much harder and way more uncomfortable than I imagined it would be. Granted there are two babies in there which is probably making it seem worse, but still. I loved being pregnant and having this experience, but once is definately enough. My mom was smoking some serious crack when she had SIX kids. Six pregnancies - somebody kill me now!
My typical night - leaving me feeling like this:
10:30-11:00 eat snack before bed, pee, take pill for contractions 1
11:30 Pee
12:45 Pee
1:30 Pee
2:00 Wake to take pill for contractions, pee
3:00 Pee
4:15 Pee
5:30 Pee
6:30 Pee
7:30 Pee, wake Jeff for work
8:30 Wake, pee, take pill for contractions, check blood sugars and off to the couch (or doctor) I go.
Anyone noticing a pattern here. All I do is Pee. Holy moly can I say pee anymore. Ok - no more pee talk. On to bigger and better things.

I am now measuring 40 weeks - if only we were 40 weeks instead of only 31. Due to Shenzies growth issue both our OB and Peri are thinking we will be having these babies closer to 34 weeks, not the 36-37 I had hoped. 34 weeks is in 2 1/2 weeks. Can we just say I am freaking out!!!!! Over two years of trying to get pregnant, 8 months of actually being pregnant, and I still feel like it isn’t real. By the end of the month we could have two screaming babies - holy crap! Jeff is so excited to finally see his babies he isn’t scared at all. Considering he has virtually no baby experience I find that odd, but good. We go in Tuesday for our growth scan to see how they are doing. If Shenzie is even more behind they will probably give me steroids to help their lung development so hopefully they won’t have to spend too much time in the NICU. Keep your fingers crossed! Off to the couch I go!

Ok here is the reason Jeff isn’t scared, he stays home with the twins for a few hours… off to work he goes… Picture Lesley, two crying babies..bath time(Heaton pees ACROSS the room, I am serious, the pee power of a baby boy is AMAZING)..Lesley feeds Shenzie, oops she spits it all up, so Lesley starts to feed her again, just as Heaton is also ready to eat, Lesley remembers she still hasn’t cleaned up the pee yet, and it’s only 8:30AM…. Seriously, you guys will do great and have lots of fun!!
