Being pregnant always comes with its many ups and downs physically, mentally and emotionally....but the end result is always worth it. That is what I keep telling myself when I have a tough day. That the result is going to be doubly worth it, and I know that it will. But getting there has been a little challenging for me. I cannot ever remember being this tired....ever. I am anemic, and even though my doctor has given me extra iron, my levels are still low. The iron makes my stomach pretty yucky. On top of that, I have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes.
Yesterday I went to meet with a dietician and nurse to help me keep it under control. Our class had 6 people in it. When they checked our blood I was the only one who was in the normal range. Yeah...I passed. And for the 2 times I have tested since then I have been normal so hopefully that will continue.
As for our little angels....Rebecca and Luke are doing wonderfully. They both weighed in last week at just below 3 pounds each. I will go back for another ultrasound the first week of November to see how they are doing. I also visit my OB weekly now so everyone is being closely monitored.
It still seems a little strange when I think about having two little babies. I don't think I will fully get it until they arrive. I am getting excited, but still a little nervous...Fear of the unknown I think.
On another note, if you ever want to leave me, Eric, the boys or the new arrivals-to-be a note just click on comments at the bottom of the post and type your message. You do not have to register, you can just click on the anonymous buttom and type your name at the end of your message so I know who it is from.
Take care and I am soon you will be hearing from me again soon.
