34 Weeks 3days

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to Twin Stuff... just wanted to find out if anyone else is feeling as uncomfortable as me. I'm 34 weeks, almost 35 weeks...I can barely walk, my belly is so huge, lots of Braxton Hicks. I have a two year old daughter and I'm finding it difficult to play w/ her b/c I'm exhausted. I"m excited for my boy/girl twins despite all my complaining...Just needed to vent. Thanks!

 

right there with you!

 

welcome to TS!!! Congrats on your babies.

I'm 33 weeks, pretty uncomfortable, been on bed rest for a month now, but we're almost there!

 

I'm around 32 weeks and the awful exhaustion is just starting to catch up with me! I have the hardest time in the mornings, I just can't get moving. Do you have anyone to help you entertain your two year old?

Donna

Hi Donna,
Luckily my husband is able to come home for lunch every day so I get about an hour break....that's not much, but it's something! He's also home by 4pm, which is also helpful. I just feel so bad for my daughter b/c I can't play w/ her the way I used to. I'm just too big and too tired...so we do a lot of low key activities... I'm looking forward to having my energy back! Thanks for listening and for everyone's encouragement We're almost there! YAY!

 

I had the worst time between 32-24 weeks. Then I think one dropped and it's been easier. Still difficult, but not as bad! I can't imagine having to chase around a toddler though!

 

I have a daughter who will be two at the end of this month, and it is hard. I often wish I could go back to bed after I get the other two off to school. I am sore and tired too!

 

You came to the right place to vent, I think most of us are right there with you. Welcome and take it easy.

I hear you! I am in my 32nd week and I think I have finally hit the wall. Or maybe the small wall before the big wall? I am SO exhausted. My stomach is HUGE, I want to eat but when I do, I feel kind of sick. The heartburn..ugh. My feet, hands and ankles are swollen. You know..today..I feel like everything is swollen. They took a toxemia test last week and it came back negative, thank goodness. But, this bloating really stinks. I am having BH contractions that wake me out of sleep. I can't really sleep for more than 3 hours. Between having to pee and contractions, who can sleep?!?!
But...it's all worth it. And I am at the end of this so that is good. And the little ones are doing great so that is wonderful. I just have to try to keep it in perspective. I have noticed that the lack of sleep and the hormonal roller coaster has put me in a place that I just don't like sometimes. I really get crying. Whining and crying that I can't do this anymore. But, these outbursts usually happen at the end of the day when I am exhausted and only last for 20 minutes or so. My husband, who has to witness these breakdowns, is being so wonderful. Thank goodness. Thanks for opening this thread. It feels good to vent!
Hang in there!!!
