Evening All
I've seen so many posts today, positive or negative keep going. Fight for the dream to be made real.... πππΌβ¨π¦β¨π¦β¨π¦β¨π¦π¦β¨π¦β¨π¦β¨
So just wanted to share a little update...we had our 28 weeks scan this week and to both our reliefs Placenta Preavia has moved. Such a huge weight lifted π¨π»π©π»ππΌso happy and all going so smooth. Am officially on holiday till 14th September and start Maternity Leave the following day.
Am just really big now, belly measures 38cm and my two baby unicorns π¦ π¦ are growing at double the rate. It's a miracle to see what our bodies do and how far they can go in these situations. Linea Negra is in full bloom as well as swollen ankles etc. So many things but am now waddling which is no joking matter and happens when I've done a few rounds of the living room hahahaha get tired so quickly. We have also started physio for my pelvic bone/ hip area as is quite tender so swimming has helped to ease some weight off too.
Dad is unbelievable, although very scared and nervous about the future he's the best daddy in the making and ready to do anything to make me more comfortable. He's a dream of a man and Has made this pregnancy so beautiful and given me the positivity i needed to get this far by always pushing me to reach my own personal goals as well as our combined goals in this beautiful partnership which grows day by day. He also got me a giant maternity pillow (coming up to my 7th month it truly was needed), full fridge of fruits and naughty snacks as I've craved those naughty chips from the corner shop or packet of spicy crisps...
Mum and the family are equally excited....I'm the middle child and eldest of the girl cousins to fall pregnant π€°π» β¨β¨β¨β¨and Twins has made it even more exciting for everyone.
Our baby shower was perfect...glad it's out of the way though, everyone made it extra special although crazy hectic and so many people came to share the love β€οΈ and were in time for the big baby gender reveal. Mum broke down in tears and everyone was over the moon π telling us we are done but I honestly don't think we will be done hahhaha (YES I AM CRAZY)
Attended our 1st Twin Antenatal Class which was a great intro. To what is to come...
So 29 weeks on Tuesday next week and still house hunting, wish us luck. We will be renting a bigger place till the new year as we've not found our perfect new first home. But it's full steam ahead to prepping all our baby bits, nappy/ hospital bags, car seats and essentials. It's quite real now... I still want to hold back on buying anything which I think we all know the reason. But am positive and just going forward even if the thought π does scratch my brain at times. Just have to continue taking one day at a time....
So I'll leave you with this short update, and if there are any Twins mama's out there get in touch.
Big love to all β€οΈπ¨π»πΆπ»πΆπ»π©π»π¦β¨π¦β¨π¦β¨π¦β¨π¦β¨π¦β¨β¨β¨β¨β¨β¨
