Just a quick hello to all.
I haven't been feeling well these days. Between headaches, back aches and lots of reflux, I'm a fricken mess!
I can't believe you all are SO CLOSE to holding your little ones. I'm looking at the tickers and seeing 33 wks, 34 wks and 35 wks. OMG -- so close to the finish line. I'm only at 29 1/2 weeks so I'm in that so close yet so far away mode. About 4-5 more weeks of work (don't know how I'll make it as I've needed to work from home quite a bit as of late).
Sporting a migraine right now so going to get off the computer before I make it worse. I just wanted to check in to see if anyone has delivered yet -- I'm sure good news is just around the corner for many of you gals.
Lots of love and best wishes.
April & May 2008

Hello again:
Yes, a lot of changes all at once. The medical system is great in the U.S. unless you don't have insurance. The funny thing is we pay more here for NHS (out of our paycheck) then we did in the U.S. for medical insurance.
Rebecca, how long have you lived in the U.S. Do you miss the UK?
Cocoa, hope you are doing better. Do you have any help around the house right now?
Woodbridge and Croella thanks for welcoming me back. I am glad everyone is doing so well. And yes, I want to sleep all the time too. Except I can only sleep on my right side, and my leg gets tired. The pillow between the legs does help a lot.
Woodbridge how lucky you are to have a night nanny. I am not sure if we will be getting help or not. A part of me wants to try on my own, but then a part of me thinks I might need help. Is there anyone else who had decided to hire some help after they get home?
Is anyone else reading Eckert Tolle's book the New Earth... or listening to the Oprah broadcasts. I am really enjoying it.
Take care,
K

hello all,
Still full of cold and cough won't ease up - wishing I'd had that flu injection after all!
Babies passed their first NST test which is great, the nurse guessed that I am carrying two girls and then changed her mind to one of each! Everyone has kept telling me that it will be boys so her prediction (based on the heart rates) threw me completely!! not that I mind what I have. WC/Cocoa - you're both having one of each - what are their heart beats? the nurse told me that girls have a higher rate than boys so thought that my little one was a girl.
Have another Biophysical tomorrow and then am guessing the doctor will tell me her plan on Monday - really hoping that I can hang on until 37 weeks as planned.
Kipatte, yes I miss the UK very much - I've been over here for nearly 3 years and although I love it and it is soooo much cheaper (not to mention how nice people are in the NW), it could never replace home. Next to our friends and family, I miss proper chocolate and real tea!!
Cocoa, where are you? and more importantly how are you? when you go quiet for too long we wonder if your babies are here!! let us all know you're doing ok.
Baby B, get better soon - sorry to hear that you're being swamped with symptoms. Can your doctor sign you off work early?
WC - how is the BP? wondering who is going to be first between you, Cocoa and Croella!
Vlada, Lisa and everyone else how are you?
Last day in the office today then working from home until Friday. I'm actually very sad to be leaving work and have no idea what I'm supposed to do in the next 3 weeks!!
Love to you all
Rebecca

14th april 2008 - beautiful twin girls!!
Hello all,
Rebecca, don't listen to anybody about HR. I am having a girl and her HR is always in 130s, it is pretty low for a girl, so you never know. I am having my first NST this friday and kinda nervous about it. I had a biophysical on Monday and she has scored very high. Now, I have to wait untill my other 3D US on next Tuesday to see if she has grown enough.
Rebecca, woodcliff, kipatee, babyb, cocoa, and who else i am forgetting
Good luck !!!!!!
Vlada
WE ARE SOOOOO CLOSE!!!!!!

Hey Ladies... I am still here... In fact, I TRIED to post TWICE but my computer was moving so slowly that I got logged off before I could get a respond window so I just quit trying (too tired and cranky)...
I agree with Vlada about the heart rates not being reliable in telling the genders but I will tell you my babies rates anyway - boy in the 140's and girl in either the 130's or the 150's (she seems to skip over the 140's) - the rates depend on movement really. When she's being a crazy mover its in the 150's and when not it's lower...
Update... I had an OB appointment scheduled for yesterday late morning but wound up calling her at 6:30am due to lack of sleep because of ALL NIGHT contractions AND really bad swelling in the face, hands and legs... She sent me into L&D and I had all the B/W I needed to check for pre-e and HELLP syndrome - all came out really well (Yeay!) so I think it may have been a reaction to the terbutaline (one of the side effects is water retention and apparently I have to be careful about too much water intake - weird I know). My problem as of late really is that I cannot eat!!! I HATE to eat because it makes me sick (EVERYTHING makes me sick- I have been throwing up everyday at least once). I feel better today because I finally slept BECAUSE I took a pepcid complete and 2 hours later I ate dinner and had NO acid reflux at all - wow!!! it was amazing that I only got up due to contractions and peeing (4xs) and NOT due to the acid reflux and puking in my sleep!!! But you can only take a maximum of two tablets a day and since I am pregnant I think even the one tablet is pushing it so I am only planning meals for the evening (well, late afternoon) and earlier in the day I am drinking chocolate milk (for calories and protein) and grain toast (for fiber) - its all I can muster... I am going to attempt a burger tonight ( ) as I have wanted one for a long time!
My dad is coming to visit tomorrow - YEAY!!! He is putting together the cribs and doing some painting for me plus he will help me pick up the crib mattresses and some other odds and ends... He loves to eat out too so I hope to be able to go my fav restaurant. My son loves when he comes too. He will also be brining down a tall dresser that will match the changing table. I really need that extra dresser with twice as many clothes as I would have if it were only one. So I should be ready by the time the beebs come... which leads me to the WHEN... when will these little munchkins come?!?!?... hmmm...
I think CroElla will go first and then it will be really close between WC and me... My OB has NOT given me any dates (c-sec or induction) but she did say she will take me off the terbutaline at 36w (2 more weeks) and let me go on my own but take them at 38w if nothing has happened by then. Both babies are head down so a vaginal delivery should be in my future (I truly hope for that).
Kipatte - you are soooo correct about carrying a baby in your 40s. I have been very surprised by how very different this pregnancy is but also by how very different I feel about BEING pregnant. Like you, on the one hand I want it over and on the other hand I want to enjoy these babies growing inside of me... I figure that as long as I can rest a lot then I can try to get things done little by little but even in watching a good movie with my son and having some popcorn, which I used to relish as a great relaxation time, I am still uncomfortable through the whole thing...
Here are some physical facts... My feet are so swollen I can't get regular shoes on and my tie up shoes have to be really loose BUT I don't like having anything on my feet because they swell so bad that I have a constant pins and needles feeling in them. My thighs are so swollen (and everything else between the feet and thighs too if you're wondering) that I cannot bend my legs which makes putting on socks and shoes quite difficult... I am tired all the time and could sleep all day if I weren't so anxious about wanting to get things done (now that's funny
)... My vision is a little blurry which I hear happens due to fluid retention (yet now I am limiting my intake and its been getting better). I get terribly numb hands and fingers while sleeping and pain in my hands and shoulders sue to fluid build up (but once again its better as I am watching my intake - the terbulatine is just awful). My handwriting sucks as I have mild pregnancy induced carpal tunnel... I can now sleep on either my right or my left sides since baby girl has FINALLY pulled her feet out from under my liver!!! Yeay!!! Oh, its the little things that make us happy huh?
Lastly - my DH has been a little bit nicer but I am not falling for any manipulations. If he wants to ever be part of our lives ever again then he has a lot to do to prove his loyalty, honor, love etc... but something tells me his pride will prevent this... I pray for him all the time for HIS sake not for mine cause I will be just fine...
love you all...

ladies, I need to moan - I feel so ill that my whole body hurts. I've coughed so hard that I've pulled a muscle in my side which means that I can't sit, stand, turn over or anything without getting a shooting pain down my right side. I'm taking Tussin DM, is there anything else I can take? I'm scared to cough or sneeze it hurts so bad 
x
x14th april 2008 - beautiful twin girls!!
Rebecca: I am so sorry you are feeling so bad. Trust me, I had this myself just a few weeks ago and I'm still suffering from a residual cough. There are a few things you can take per my OB: Sudafed (regular cough/cold) and she even prescribed Phenergin (sp?) and Codine cough syrup (she said the narcotic would help me sleep and is not harmful to the baby). I also resorted to the typical vicks vapor rub and halls cough drops, drank TONS of tea with lemon and honey, inhaler to clear out my sinuses, etc.
I know how much this sucks. Every bone of my body hurt when I had the bug. I couldn't get comfortable. I must have driven my DH crazy begging him to rub every limb of mine. Lots of hot baths may help too.
I've just gotten over a 3 day stint of migraines! It was complete hell. Every hour on the hour I was up, at times yupping over the toilet and in total misery. Finally went back to the office today (although I worked quite a bit from home the last 2 days -- don't know how I managed to look at the computer). Now that I'm back to work, my back is killing me again. After about 4 hrs, I'm done sitting (even on a couch and even when I take breaks). I have ice wrapped around me for a good part of the day.
You and I are on the same schedule -- I'll be 30 weeks on Sunday. I want the next 6 weeks to pass so quickly you have no idea! While I'm not ready at home and ill prepared, I am much more miserable in my current state and I think releasing myself from this condition would be the lesser evil. Come on boys . . grow, be healthy and then "get the heck out of me -- LOL!" That sounds horrible, I know.
In any event, still checking to see if Vlada, WC, Croella or Cocoa have delivered yet. You guys are so close. I can't wait to hear all the happy news.
I apologize if I've missed anyone.
Lots of comfort and good wishes to all of you. We need some serious TLC after all of this!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks Baby B, ended up calling the doctor and she prescribed me something similar - prometh & codeine. Took one teaspoon and was out for 4 hours!! took another before bed last night and slept from 10pm through to 7:30!! still full of cold and muscle in my side is killing me but the sleep has been amazing!! Sorry to hear about the migraines - that must be very tough 
Babies passed their NST on Monday and also their BP scan yesterday - they're still small (16th percentile and 31st percentile) so I'm not sure whether the doctor will still pull forward the C-section - really hope not.
Last official work day for me today!!
Happy Good Friday everyone - In the UK this is a long weekend so those back in Blighty have fun and enjoy the time off work!!

Hello Ladies,
Rebecca and Babyb, I hope you guys will feel better soon!!!!!!
It is no fun to be soooo close to delivery and have this terrible cold.
As for me, I had my first NST today and my baby passed, she was also hyperactive, so it took longer because the nurse was waiting for her to slow down, since she was moving and kicking like crazy.
The next step will be next Tuesday, i am going for my 3D US to see if she has grown enough, i am very nervous about US because if she declined in her growth , she will have to come out early. I am 34 weeks today, but i would like to keep my little one in a couple of weeks longer.
Oh, and i started having heartburn, escpecially at night, it is no fun.
I hope everyone is progressing well,
Vlada

Hi everyone. Quick question: Everyone keeps talking about an NST at this late stage. What is this? Can't be nuchal scan test which we do early on to determine DS. Just curious as I don't think I've had one yet.
Rebecca: Glad you finally got some meds and are getting some sleep. Here's to a quick recovery now.
Well, migraines have stopped, but now the back pain is back in full force. UGH! When does the discomfort ever end!!!!!
Having my baby shower next Sat. Mom and Dad are coming into town for a week tomorrow to help out with the house, the babies' room and the shower. Hope I can actually socialize long enough before my back starts killing me.
Take care.

Ladies...quick note...those of you feeling unwell, my best healthy wishes your way...
no time for personals..
just got out of the hospital ... 2 nights...start of pre-Eclapsia, babies are well, 10 of 10 in the BPP, and the NSTs were perfect..
went to my OB Wed, he sent me to the hospital cuz I'd gained 5 pounds in one week COCOA I almost laughed at him...thinking of your 16 in 2...
but my BP was elevated, etc....
at the hosp. my BP leveled off..just borderline, again...but protein in the urine, which I have never had
the obs said they'll prob see me and deliver my babies in a week...but we'll see, could be sooner...kind of funny, hubby kept saying "10 days, APril, right?"
The ob said, 3 times, as these 2 went back and forth
'one week'
whatever...I am on total bedrest. makes all the diff...my BP reading was just taken and it's very low...
I GREW SO MUCH in the past 2 days...you'd die...boy.
Must sign off...wish me luck..
if I have the babies I'll be offline for awhile...then will post at some point....prob no photos or names cuz of the public nature of forums...
wishing you all well..
xxoo
PS have a great Ped...he said the diff of 35 vs 36 weeks for the babies was not much....that the real differences come long before, it: he has some 28 week born twins....
so we're all almost there...
best to all
PSS: little girl loves to stick herself under my ribs
OUCH
xxooo

Hi All:
Rebecca, I miss crystal light, toll house cookies ( in the tube) Fritos, and pumkin in a can ( to make muffins). There are a whole lot of other things we can't get here also. But that is the adventure right?
My baby wasn't moving much at all the last few days so I went to the hospital and the monitored me for awhile. Everything is fine. She was moving but I just couldn't feel her. Better safe than sorry.
Who is having a C-section? Anyone have one before?
Take care,
K
