Ready or Not . . .
Wednesday, September 4, 2013
My goal was to be completely ready for the twins by the time I was 30 weeks. That was later than the recommendations from all the reading I've done. Well, life is not a book and these twins do have siblings so here we are at almost 36 weeks and 5 days and I've only been done with the nursery for a week or so. Oh well, I'll just count my blessings that bed rest wasn't a part of this journey for me. So here's how it turned out!

I think we are actually ready. I know 100% that I am because even on a day like today when my house is a mess and I'd be embarrassed if I went to the hospital and anyone came in and saw it, I just don't care enough to not wish with a little part of me that something would force labor to start today. But actually I can wait, because I'm really hoping to avoid any NICU time, since that means a life flight and a different hospital.
Baby A is still breech and we have a planned C-Section in 9 days. I am thinking that anytime after 37 weeks is fair game though. Although I'm sure my doctor wouldn't love to hear that. The good news is I have plenty of things to do and kids to chase around to keep me busy so that days really are going by pretty fast. I think the kids are as anxious as meet to meet these two little people that are joining our family. I think Steve is still a little scared. . . It does seem surreal to me too. But logistically, physically and emotionally I think we are ready.

The room turned out great! I love the quilts! I just cant wait to see the babies, but I have a feeling that you can't wait either. :)
