Twins cont..

So the first couple weeks after finding 9out were heaven we were so excited. Then I started to get really sick. Everything i smelled every time i looked in the fridge i threw up. I cant tell you how much i hate morning sickness which they should not call it that! Its an all day thing- I literally lived by the toilet- and im sorry for all the peoples cars I threw up in! The only thing I could stand eating was frosted flakes. So for any of you out there throwing up too- i feel your pain and just want you to know it gets better i hit about 17 weeks and it disappeared. I was so greatful to be in canada while pregnant because they have a miracle drug called diclectin which helps with the nausea. They dont sell it in the states. I was very greatful for ward members who looked after me and brought in food- I was so sick and literally had no energy to get out of my bed. i hope its worse with twins so next time should be easier. The dr. did say I had so many extra hormones it was normal for me to feel that way. So lets cross our fingers for next time. I didnt crave anything my fisrt trimester probabally cause i felt so cruddy-Our trip to Florida disneyworld is kind've tainted by my remembering how crappy i felt the whole time despite it being somewhere disney which i love so much. The second trimester was a breeze I loved it i had energy and loved watching how my babies were growing i also started to feel them move which was very cool-and i loved when brandon could start feeling them his hand wouldnt leave my stomach. The only eventful thing was having kidneystones on christmas eve- i guess it prepared me to not be so scared of the hospital when i have my c section. This third trimester has been a difficult one- I'm just so big that it is very hard to get comfortable and sit for long periods of time. i dont sleep very well and my clothes selection is very limited lol. Its hard to breathe and I'm just so ready for them to be here. In my arms instead of my stomach kicking all the time- i do love getting more ultrasounds-with twins its high risk so they check me every 2 weeks. the techs keep telling me they are hairy. The most annoying thing about these past couple weeks has been my skin- and numbness i see so many veins popping because of extra blood flow my hands and feet swell causing numb legs and arms- its really scarry to go through this the first time and have no idea whats wrong with you. My main craving with this pregnancy has been crushed ice- i love it!- the dr said its because im anemic and even with iron pills i still crave them. So there you go a little bit about my pregnancy. Ill be so glad to not answer the question when are you due.... why are you having a c section?-- because the dr said people! its twins think about it- it irks me people and there weird thinking about c setions-I think im getting grouchy i want them out- I've had enough of being pregnant and am excited to be a mom now.
