"You can have babies pretty soon here"
I had a meeting with our doula tonight, which lasted for about 2 1/2 hours.
I was a little disappointed that Husby wasn’t here for the visit but I know that he is putting in all this extra time and effort so that he can be more available once the twins are actually here outside of my body. Anyway, he is taking the morning off to go in to my NST appointment tomorrow since he has missed...

43 ... ER... 34 weeks well, and a few days.
“Is it over yet???”- that is how I felt through the long weekend. Christmas was great, and I had a lot of fun, but it felt like I had a 2 ton weight tied to each ankle pulling me down and making the simplest tasks hard to accomplish. Ok, maybe it was the 55lb weight hanging off the front of my belly. It is so huge and heavy.
Having battled with infertility I personally know, and...

A lot of people feel overwhelmed when considering breastfeeding. Many think it will be hard, it will hurt, it will take up too much time, the baby will never take a bottle, it’s weird, your parents don’t want you to, breastfeeding in public is scary, wtf do I do with this pump?!, etc.
First off……
Reblogging for awesome relevance

On behalf of all gays and lesbians living in Minnesota, I would like to wholeheartedly apologize for our community’s successful efforts to threaten your traditional marriage. We are ashamed of ourselves for causing you to have what the media refers to as an “illicit affair” with your staffer, and we also extend our deepest apologies to him and to his wife. These recent events...
mommyfertility asked: When my water broke I was on my couch watching Dexter. I got up to use the washroom as it just felt like a little gush and I thought that I had peed myself a little. When I went to the washroom and pushed to pee the fluids came out a lot more. Afterwards it continued to leak but not in huge gushes. If you are really worried start wearing those after baby maxi pads. They were good enough for me...

I bet it’s a little like the neighbors hearing you have sex. You worry a lot about it beforehand, but during and after you don’t give a second thought … hopefully that’s not just me. Good luck!!! You’re almost there!!!!

I was worried too but in the end I woke up and made it to the toilet before there was any spillage. I had this really weird all over tremor kinda feeling that woke me from my sleep. I don’t know if everyone is the same though.

A little worried...
I have been getting a little worried about when my water will break.. When I told Husband this he assumed I was worried about labor, pain, and the arrival of the babies. While those things do make me nervous, they aren’t actually what I meant.
I am worried that if we are out and about and my water breaks it will get all over the seat of my new car! Ewwwww!!!
I am also worried that if we...

Cheese and rice! What a weekend!
Friday started out all good in the hood, I met up with the Hubbs and a friend for a super tasty Asian lunch (where I enjoyed a pork Banh Mi sandwich). That afternoon the guys proceeded to start emptying the house of tons of film gear that my husband has been letting take over the majority of community space, in an effort to make room for tons of baby stuff that...

8 months/ 32 weeks.. and counting
Last Friday I hit the 32 week mark, and we were pretty excited. These babies can come at any time now so every week we make it is it’s own victory. Just in case they decide to show up early we have started making preparations. We have found a place located near the hospital that offers discounted rooms for parents with infants in the NICU (that 40 minute drive multiple times a day would be...

Well I am happy they are giving you a replacement massage. I would not have laid down for that massage though. I would have left the room immediately. I’m sorry it was so shitty for you.
Yeah, I feel pretty silly for going through with the massage but at the same time I take pleasure in the fact that she...

This past Saturday was a bit of a bust. A girlfriend of mine was going to take our maternity session photos, but I woke up (after a horrible night’s sleep) to gale force winds. Not very conducive to our purpose.
Husband and I laid around in bed for a few hours watching TV, which was actually nice. The only real problem is that I am to the point where laying down actually hurts my body...
Booooo! Supposed to do maternity photos today and it is freaking windy out! Damn weather channel app! There was no wind prediction until today! That’s not even a prediction, that is looking out side and pointing out the obvious!
In other news.. I have begun purchasing a few random tops/sweaters to wear after the babies come in sz Lg. I got pretty excited that they actually fit right now...

I am going to remember to do this! Usually my husband is a total paparazzi but I am pretty sure he may be just about as out of it as I...
