Prego talk

A list of things that are different this pregnancy from the last...now that im past the point of my past pregnancy...

• A small bit of comfort in knowing that my water wouldn’t coincidentally break the same day that it did last time and it is possible for my body to carry past the point of 19wks 3 days.
• When im actually standing for the couple minutes that I do stand my tummy feels VERY heavy…
• I cant see under my belly any longer so I am unable to shave…at all!!! Huh its uncomfortable and sucks!!!
• The babies move soooo much. Its weird cause one side of my belly will move and then the other will do it at the same time, it’s a crazy thing having more then one in there.
• Its hard for me to sleep and im only 22wks! I feel huge. Its hard to get comfortable, my tummy is so heavy when im laying on my side…even with a pillow under it its still uncomfortable.
• I HONESTLY get up minimum 4 times a night to go pee. ITS TRUE! I count…lol
• Tim was able to feel the babies kick and move around for the first time the other day and it was an amazing feeling to see him in that small way he can right now connect with the twins, it mad me sad to think he never got to feel the other set of twins in my tummy.
• Its an exciting feeling to be so close to 24wks (since that’s when babies are viable…If they are born they will be taken to the NICU, and will at least be given a chance at life rather then just set on my tummy and watch them pass) that’s where I wished I could`ve been last time I was prego… its still SUPER early but it’s a good feeling to know that if they were born something will be done to attempt to keep them alive.
• Being on bed rest is super boring, I never thought id say I actually look forward to work after the weekend cause I actually GET to do something rather then watch tv, read, eat and sleep. Saturdays and Sundays are soo boring the back of my head hurts by the end of the day from laying down on it all day long, its ridiculous! (but for a good cause of course : )
• I didn’t mention this in my first post… I am unable to have sex this entire pregnancy, yup. Ever since I got my Cerclage in at 14wks not one bit of sex! Its craziness. So if you see my husband and he seems a little on edge you know why…poor guy!!! Its kinda funny to me because we didn’t have sex to become prego (since we did IVF fertility) and now we cant have sex during the pregnancy… its like its not even necessary with the technology we have these days… haha.

My weekly appointments are going great, the babies are strong and are growing just fine. My cervix hasnt changed at all since 16wks and is still measuring at a 3.5cm...nice and long, right where it needs to stay!
