I feel like poo. I am at almost 31 wks, dh calls it 62 bc I am doubly prego. Dh has been gone for 3 wks, it feels like longer. He was gone for 4 or 5 wk with dd and didn't get back until almost 37 wks. So I am kinda used to doing this leg by myself but at least with dd I was still functional. I really don't want to be put on bedrest bc as it is its hard for me to do everything. I have my 13 yrd old neice helping me out while my sister is at work and I am even paying her for it. But I feel like such a tool asking her for a glass of water or even my laptop which is just across the room but I am too stiff or even finally comfortable to get up and get it myself. I had another rough night last night, I was up every 2 hours until 5 when I felt like I had a heck of a contraction out of no where. Has anyone else had issues with gas with twins as compared to single. With dd it wasn't so uncomfy and I feel so.....ugh inflated. But with these 2 its like they can't handle the gas at all, that and they hate it so when I have some gas pain they seem to attack it and make is worse. I am terrified they are going to come early but it feels like they are trying their best to keep me on my butt. But I'm not used to being on my butt, I am used to being able to clean up after myself and taking care of my kid and basically running my household. I just kinda feel useless and like a failure bc I can't keep up. But at the same time I just want to go back to bed and not come out until dh gets home. That and I am getting sick of ppl telling me how big I am! I am bigger every morning, you would think I would notice how big I am without random ppl teling me. I have been told by several ppl who actually know what they are talking about that for twins I am in great shape and not that big. I just want to punch ppl in the face at this point when they tell me I look huge. Saturday will be great fun, I have a bb shower with my inlaws. I want to wear a sign that says yes I am big but please keep that to yourself. Thanks for letting me vent, maybe a shower will help me feel better.
We know how you feel, most of us have been there, and a lot of us WILL be where you are. You are almost there! You can do it
It's so hard to go from being independent to needing help. I never liked it when people commented on my size, either. It's so hard but each day that passes gets you closer to holding those babies. :hug:
(((((HUGS)))) I can't imagine doing it without my DH. You are a real trooper!!! As far as the gas, I did have a lot of issues with pain towards the end. I started taking something for it, but can't remember what. Please don't feel bad asking people for help. I would bet that they are more than happy to help and soon they will get to enjoy cute snuggly babies with you
Your doing great!! I use my 7 year old daughter all the time, poor thing. Mommy needs this or Mommy needs that...can you get Mommy this...hahaha...She is such a great helper!! I don't "pay" her, but when we do make it to the store, I try to let her get a little treat that I normally wouldn't let her have just because. You gotta do what helps you!! I sit on the couch so much, I somewhat feel attached to it!! :youcandoit:
