We are heading towards the end of our 34th week in our twin pregnancy, and I’m definitely starting to feel it. One of the oddest struggles I have is eating at a table. Since my belly is so big, it’s hard to eat without spilling, ohhh the odd things you find out about pregnancy.
I dislike having my picture taken, so I don’t have any fancy pictures of my pregnancy with cute chalkboards marking the weeks (I know I’m a slacker!), but I was looking back and found some bad iPhone pictures I have snapped along the way. It was pretty amazing to see the growth of my belly. If we go to 38 weeks, it will be interesting to see how big I actually get. It’s so funny to think how big I thought I was back when I looked so tiny (I can’t wait for that body back!!!). As a few of my girlfriends have said, my pictures don’t capture the width of the belly, since I have such big hips; my belly is as wide as it is deep these days.
Many of you are already moms so you know that 34 weeks is a big week since the lungs are developed, and if the babies come early, they most likely won’t require any time in a NICU (yippie). We did our tour at the hospital the other day, picked our pediatrician, and have stocked up on diapers and winter onesies, so I think for the most part we are (semi) ready for them to arrive. We don’t have a kitchen yet at the house, but the cabinets arrived Thursday, and they will begin the install on Monday. If the babies wanted to hold off arriving for a couple weeks, that would be perfect.
