I am coming to the end of week 34 of this very LONG twin pregnancy. I still have a discordance between the two babies of about 23%. Our little boy is bigger by exactly a pound...but our little girl is still a good size. They took me off 'Strict' bed rest & am now on moderate bed rest...which is a good thing considering how uncomfortable the end is turning out to be. I have been getting so much help with Lizzie during the day from family which as been amazing. I don't know what we would do without all this help. I am able to keep her now that they gave me more freedom w/ the bed rest but I can't do anything really 'fun' with her. I look forward to recovery so her and I can have some fun outings together again. Lizzie has been handling things really well and I don't think she has thought anything of it. She knows I have babies in my belly & because of that I am unable to lift her. Lets see if she is as understanding after the babies are home with us.
I titled this post " but your so close" b/c I hear that 100 times a day & it just doesn't seem true. I do know I am close but it is getting really tough. I have tried to keep a good sense of humor about it but I am getting so 'DONE' w/ this. I have a lot of baby in my belly which causes me to have trouble sleeping, eating, walking, breathing, sitting,....you get the picture. I need to remind myself that it is in fact almost go time & to just try to enjoy all this rest I am getting.
I don't have many pics...(avoiding those these days) but have some of Lizzie enjoying summer. We were able to enjoy a lovely dinner one night followed by a carriage ride...she thought she was a princess & it was so cute to watch her so excited.
