I feel like I could win Farmer Brown a blue ribbon if I waddled myself into one of the barns at the state fair for largest pregnant mammal (which I am bummed I'll have to miss the fair this year, but I know I'd be miserable!) Haha, ok so I'm really not beating up on myself for how big I'm getting...I know its normal to get huge with twins and I've even been complimented by many nurses that my belly looks great and am so lucky I don't have any stretchmarks! But...some days especially when I'm laying in bed and have to get a rocking momentum worked up to be able to sit up, I truly feel like a cow (wait till I start nursing, I'll probably freak). I just emailed my friend a message telling her that yesterday I got so hot that I felt like livestock in labor just trapped in a cage with no where to go on a hot summer day. It took me that long to finally realize that it was time to turn on the air, as much as I loved having the windows open and fresh air!
Anyway, sometimes I feel a bit bizarre posting pictures of my huge belly but figured it isn't often that many people are pregnant with twins and it helps me keep my positive attitude if I can try to find the humor in it. Plus, it helps me to try and document this experience so I can one day have proof to show the girls! So, here are some pics (don't say I didn't warn you...)
The first 2 photos are at 28 weeks...this was about an hour before I had my first major "oops" and peed my pants from laughing so hard from watching "Weekend at Bernies"...ha!
This is my friend Amy and me at our friend's Tracy and Mark's wedding. I was 2 days shy of being 29 weeks. By the way, the dress I wore that night fit below my knees when I bought it about 2 months prior. When I put it on that day it only hit about halfway down my thighs...so I had to wear leggings underneath!
Here I am today, 31 weeks and 3 days. UFF DA! And when I'm at home on bedrest it's usually glasses and no make up
Let's pray my little munchkins stay inside for at least another 2.5 weeks (YIKES, imagine my belly then!) 34 weeks is my ultimate goal!
