How Can I Make My Time Go By Faster?

I am 36 weeks pregnant with twins (boy and girl). My c-section is scheduled in 18 days. My son weighs 5.13 pounds and my daughter weighs 5.11 pounds. I am trying my best to get through these next 18 days. I am having the most difficult time sleeping and the heartburns are getting worst. I also notice my stomach is a little sore. I am currently on bedrest. Beside watching movies, reading, and etc.... is there any suggestions I can do to make these 18 days go by quick? Also, what can I do about the sleep? I tried the pillow, warm milk, and etc....Heartburn suggestions? I tried Zantac, Tums, and warm milk.

Thank you for responding. It seems like the closer it's getting the harder it's getting. I have 4 days from Sat for my C-Section and I must say, I am feeling like it's my first trimester.....lol. Thank you for your kind words.

Try to sleep on a recliner...or propped with pillows in all directions, I also swam, it gave me back relief the entire day and made me feel like I wasn't even prego when I was inthe water.  they were born a month ago at 36 weeks, he was 5.11 she was 4.2 best of luck to you.  Remember your pain will translate into no time in the horrible NICU!!!  My girl was there for 6 days. All my best to you.
