Hump Day...

Must enjoy today and tomorrow then I get to be on my own for a couple of days...yay! Not looking forward to that but meh we shall see.

Did go to a TVMOTC meeting last night, was good to talk with mothers who already have twins, and with others that are also expecting. Funny thing was most of us expectant mothers have a similar due date go figure.

I'm feeling the babies moving around this morning :) Still really only feeling butterflys no real kicks. Unfortunately I'm pretty uncomfortable still between my legs but something tells me Abigail is not likely to move too much so I'm going to have to live with it.

One of our friends is hopefully going to help us out on the weekend to pick up the cribs and mattresses before they go back to the warehouse. Not easy for me to help James with that at this point unfortunately. However we really need to try to make a bit of a dent on the mess in the nursery. I did a few bits last weekend but it seems like there is a never ending pile!

My friends cousin gave birth a week and a half ago finally. She actually was induced because her baby's heartbeat wasn't as strong as they wanted it to be. So 2 days of labour Caleb was introduced to the world at 7lbs 13oz's. She is tiny and his feet are huge! She also gave us a couple of sleepers for the babies as well :)

I still wonder if I will go through a vaginal birth or if it will just be a c section. My gut tells me right now a c section but we shall see.

It was good to hear from other parent's of twins about their experiences. It sort of adds to the comfort feelings. I do want to try to breastfeed but I also want to pump as well so that Jagr will be able to help feed the little cherubs and also to bond with them.

Hehe I think the biggest piece of advice tho was if people offer help don't turn it down! We also got a few tips etc on where to go for help. All in all nice people and was good to meet others in the same boat as it were.
