34 weeks, yay!!! With twins this is quite an accomplishment. And I'm still not terribly miserable (just a little miserable) I think if I had to stress out about cribs, and feeding them and taking care of them it would be more stressful maybe, but I don't have to worry about any of that. I don't even get the "nesting" that women get towards the end of their pregnancies with my surrogacies. I kinda wish I did though because my house could use a little "nesting" behaviour! Instead I'm in lay around and relax mode, hoping to keep these babies in at least until their dad gets here in a few weeks. Not much I can do if they decide to come early, but I sure can do as little as possible to try not to bring it on. I am still working full time, but again my charge nurses take pretty good care of me, I think mostly because they don't wanna be down a nurse and up a patient! Kinda funny if you think of it like that. My feet are starting to swell, and I also get blurry vision when I'm pregnant off and on-No I'm not pre-eclamptic, I have model blood pressure and am planning to keep it that way! (not that I can really plan that)
While 34 weeks is awesome I sure hope to get to at least 36 or 37 weeks that would make for much healthier babies. And surprisingly the closer I get to delivery the less nervous I get. You would think it would be opposite, but I've had so many contractions some smart pretty good, but are still very sporadic and I just think oh yea, these are what those early labor contractions feel like it's only the active labor ones that really hurt, and those, for me, don't usually last very long. My main concern would be post partum hemorrhage, being my 5th delivery and a multiple delivery I'm at a higher risk for hemorrhage. I have the best OB in town, and the best LDR nurses too, so I'll be very well taken care of!
