So close but yet feels sooo far!!
So, I'm 32 weeks 3 days now and I really just want to be done!!! This is the worst pain I have ever been in! Any one who sees my facebook knows all this. I just wish that I could magically have my babies be healthy and fully matured and come out like next week! My belly looks like it's dropping already and I hope it is cause if this is the pressure I have to deal with and they haven't really dropped I will be so upset cause that means the bad pain is yet to come. I really think that my labors are way worse than I think they are but because I have so much pain up til the end that it doesn't feel as bad because I've built up a pain tolerance like a mo fo during pregnancy... lol I think that is the best way to put it. haha
So this wednesday I went to the hospital for my TTTS ultrasound and my NST and I really, I mean really hated it!!! It was so uncomfortable and it made me contract to terribly! And they made me do it for another 10 min or so after I was done!! I understand that the amount of contractions I was having was alarming but it was because of the position I was in and the 3 bands wrapped around my belly!! It was one of the most uncomfortable things I've had to do. I was so irritated I started to cry and the contractions I was having were the worst ones I've had so far. I really think that one of these tuesdays that I have to go for the ultrasounds I will wind up in labor from the irritation. I think the contractions I have during the tests will make me dilate and my water break. At least I'll be in the hospital already.
So, being pregnant as time goes by I get really upset about certain things. My husband, Greg, rides a motorcycle. Today some woman was driving her car so far up his butt she almost hit him and I was behind her. Honestly if she had hit him I would have stopped my car too and punched her in the face!!! So me being the crazy hormonal person I've become I screamed out my window at her to back off! Then she stopped on a dime and made a left. I yelled at her again. She truly needs driving lessons! Who in their right mind rides right up a person on a motorcycles rear! People are sooo stupid!
One of the other things bothering me is how many people that are trying to get pregnant that want twins... I know twins are cute and you think one pregnancy and done. I truly don't think people get that it's high risk to begin with and that it is HARD on your body! You have to eat more, gain more, worry more, go to the Dr's more and even if you do everything you possible can for the babies things can still go wrong! I have done everything above and beyond for my babies and they still have issues. One of my precious little girls isn't gaining as much weight as her sister. The bigger twin has a better spot on the placenta and is getting better/more nutrition because of it. I have done everything in my power but this can still happen. I am hoping that my girls gain weight like crazy! I'm having a hard time eating much. I'm just not hungry and food doesn't seem as appealing to me anymore. I think I'm just getting tired of being pregnant and I'm close to the end so I'm starting to just rest a lot.
Another thing is I've been looking on a lot of forums this pregnancy and for the most part people are kind and helpful. I also have been seeing a lot of young girls that are pregnant and they have no clue what is going on. I honestly got most of my information from good pregnancy books I bought and googling a few things for more indepth answers. I also ask my dr things all the time. I actually have a friend that is an ob/gyn and I can just test her when I can't find an answer. She's amazing. I just wish that when you got pregnant for the first time your Dr would hand you required reading material so that these young women could be informed about their bodies and what is going on with their babies. There is so much false information going around and I can't correct everyone because people will believe what they want to. I just wish that if I did have the time to do it that people wouldn't look at me like a know it all or a pushy person. I just know the falsehoods that get passed around as truth and it breaks my heart seeing people feed into the bs that they hear. Its not right and I get really bent outta shape. Not angry just upset that these people don't know that truth. I appreciated everyone who gave me good advice and sent me in the right direction. These woman get upset if you tell them something other than what they've believed or heard from a friend or just plain made up themselves. I pray for them that someone they respect in their lives comes along and gives them good advice.
Ok, enough rants. I am in pain hoping this pregnancy ends in like 3 weeks and praying the babies are completely healthy and grow a lot more. I am very excited and I don't want to rush them out but I am in pain and pray they are mature. Love my aliens!!!

My joking turned reality
So, jokingly I have been saying for a few months that Olivia makes me eat a lot, and Zoe makes me eat healthy. Well, at my ultrasound today we found out that Olivia is about 12 oz bigger than Zoe. The last few times they have been pretty close like a quarter pound or less. Now they are 3 quarters of a pound apart and it happened in the last 4 weeks. From now on I have to go once a week and get an ultrasound and NST. So, I will be in the hospital for about 3 hours or so every tuesday. Yay me... :( I have to find a sitter which is going to be a pain, cause we can't really pay anyone right now.
Olivia went from 1 lb 15 oz in four weeks to 3 lbs 7 oz and Zoe went from 1 lb 11 oz in four weeks to 2 lbs 11 oz. I'm just upset because I can't do anything to beef her up on my own. I'm really tired from all of the things I learned this morning. I have to take a nap. I'll add more later.
