Long time... no update


I know it has been a long time with no update about my pregnancy and so I thought I would try to give a breif summary of what's been going on. I am now 31.5 weeks and am no longer working. I have had a few scares with my blood pressure over the last couple of weeks, and so my doctor has recommended I quit work and stay at home. I have felt pretty good lately other than the headaches, dizziness, and nausea, but my doctor wants to make sure I dont' develop preeclampsia so for now I am just taking it easy. It has been quite a change for me from working 5 days a week to filling up my free time with making baby bows, reading books about rasing twins, watching soap operas, and taking a nap whenever I want. I am still in shock that I am going to have twins, and the weeks are passing by quicker and quicker. Before I know it they will be here, and then I won't even know what the word nap means. My doctor has told me he won't let me go past 38 weeks and says that most twins come early around 35. That means in 3 1/2 weeks I could be a mommy of twins. It is very exciting but scary all at once. The picture of me was from last week so I am sure I am a little bit bigger now. I will try to be better about blogging, especially since I have nothing better to do now with my time.

YOu must have more free time, I was wondering when you were going to have a new post. And by the way, I think you look little in that picture. Definatley doesn't like like there are two babies in there. Most of us are bigger than that with one baby.

I agree with Jodi... you don't look very big!! You look great. I'm guess than that your dr won't let you come to the reunion!!!!! Hang in there and enjoy your quite time. Hopefully we will see you soon.

You look awesome and I'm so excited for you and your adventures to come! You'll be so awesome with those 2 little girls. Good luck-- can't wait to see pictures!
