c-r-a-b-b-y *vent*

I'm 17 weeks with twins and I'm so over the day already and it's barely started.  I just wanted to go back to bed. My husband is trying to be helpful... he made breakfast but now I have to do all the dishes. He's refusing to tend to our 2 year old because he has a runny nose and cough for the reasoning that it will jeopardize him being able to put in OT at work. I understand these earnings are the extra money we will need for these babies during my mat leave and the other things we'll need for thier arrival (minivan,  car seats,  double stroller, etc) but I just want to rest today.  I'm near tears having been up twice with our son over the night and then up at 7am.  Is it wrong to lock myself in the bedroom til I don't feel like I may bite someone's head off??

I'm 27+wks with twins and I was extremely crabby around 18wks. Everyone bothered me, things they said, did etc. There were more than a few tears shed I must admit. At the same time I tried to constantly remind myself that my hormones where all over the place because of the pregnancy and because I was worried about my babies. Twin pregnancy is definitely more tiring than singleton, but finding some motivation from within is good for you too.
