27 weeks, all is still well
You may have noticed that I haven’t posted here is awhile. Truth is, I’m a big old comment sponge and thus have seemed to spend more time blogging on my ‘home’ site because I get more comments there. Also, with the pregnancy getting further along, I find that most of my posts at the other site are more and more focused on pregnancy stuff so it feels like I’d just be cutting and pasting to put more here. If you are curious about said other site, it is http://robynanne.wordpress.com.
Anyway, Yes, things are still going well. We are 27 weeks and 3 days along and these boys are growing like crazy. I’m HUGE! So huge, in fact, that I’m finding the pickings pretty slim in the closet these days for things that I can wear. I suppose this is a bit of a blessing though as it encourages doing laundry which I don’t like doing because it is so much work. These days, I’m quite a bit happier sitting still than I am up and moving around too much.
Something to note. At this point, I’m starting to get more nervous about the babes and their well being. Not because of anything in particular, just because of my history and my expectations of feeling them move around more. Before I could feel them, NOT feeling them wasn’t a specific reason to get anxious. Now that I can, it bothers me for them to be too quiet at any given time. I’m trying to find a decent balance of this much like I did with my pregnancy with Asher. The trouble is that finding an anxiety balance at this point in pregnancy requires accepting that things can go wrong and if they do, that just is how life is. The recognition that it would SUCK, S_U_C_K, but we would still make it through. Being pregnant with someone else’s babies makes that hard to really do. The whole concept of “Yes, I’m responsible for the life of your amazingly precious babies but if they were to not make it we will ultimately find the zen in that being how life works out sometimes.” Well… that doesn’t fly so well. All the same, it honestly really IS an important aspect of making it through any pregnancy while still sane. A little “bad things happen to other people” twist on reality to make each day liveable. Yep, I’m working on it.
