Well, here I am. 32 weeks and can officially say pretty miserable. Don't get me wrong, I know it could be worse. I could be on bed rest, in the hospital fighting contractions, or a number of other things. I am thankful to still be free from all of that.
In other news, my face is now pregnant. Apparently my cheeks and chin didn't get the memo that the babies grow in the tummy not the face.
I went to the doctor on Friday and she said that everything looks great. My blood pressure was slightly elevated at 130/90 (should be 120/80). She said for now we will just watch it. Apparently high BP is more normal with multiples. That doesn't make it anymore ok though. However, since my appt I have really started swelling. My ankles are a thing of the past. I am trying to drink water and eat smart to avoid any extra fluid retention but nothing seems to work.
We start our WEEKLY visits now! So, we go this Friday for another sonogram. I am really hoping that both babies are over 4 lbs and looking great. She told me that if I haven't had them by APRIL 2, then that will be the day. I will be 38 weeks. I just pray that they both stay head down so maybe I won't have to have a C-Section. It's hard to believe that by looking at the picture of me I still need to grown another 6 weeks. WHOA!
The nursery is almost there... that's a BIG almost. The painters are working this week to finish painting upstairs (which is really almost done) and will paint the nursery as well. So, by this weekend, I hope to have my upstairs fully renovated and my nursery 95% done. The only things that should be lacking will be curtains (currently with the seamstress), the changing table (should be finished by the end of Feb), and our rocking chair (should be here the last week of Feb.)
Please continue to say lots of prayers. I hate to complain or even elude that I am uncomfortable. I know the best place for these two right now is in my tummy. I can do it! I can do it!!
