Due anytime Summer 2012

Hi ladies.  I know it's kind of early for me, being only 7wks 5days along, to start this, but I wanted to start sharing this journey with others due around the same time as me.

I know many of us (me included) are afraid to put ourselves out there this early, afraid that something might go wrong, but I have known so many of you for you long, that I just couldn't wait any longer to start sharing experiences with you.  I have never been this far along in a pregnancy, and am so sure I am going to have tons of questions.

I am expecting twins, and am still in shock! :)  We have a due date of Aug 9th, but It will probably be more like July 26th, due to it being twins
I feel pretty good most of the time,  but if I don't eat every 2-3 hrs, the babies let me know it!

Just wondering how everyone else is feeling, and wondering if anyone else has questions we can help each other with....

Hugs!!!

@mhv--thanks so much for putting together this group! It has been such a help to me to share this pregnancy journey with this group of wonderful ladies!

I'll keep checking in until Aiden is born, which could be tomorrow, or not for 3-4 weeks.....

But in case this is my last post before my little guy arrives, I wanted to thank all of you for your support, and to wish each one of you a wonderful birth experience. Most of all, healthy babies, and a quick recovery for all of you mommies. XXXXX

Ladies we are all getting closer to the end of our journies!  It is almost July already!!!!  In the couple of months, we will have all met our little bundles of joy!   We waited sooooo long for this!  It's hard to believe that around 7 months have passed since we started this thread!!!  

A few of us have already had our familes grow, and others are a short few weeks/months away until our familes become larger!  I cannot believe how close we are!

We have shared happiness, sadness, and the unknown, together.  We have been there for each other through morning sickness, evening sickness, and aches and pains... we have shared our questions, and fears, and are still leaning on each other through the births of our little ones.  
I am so glad I have you ladies to share this with.

We are sooooooo lucky!!!

God is Great!!!!

Evelyna-  So glad to hear your u/s was great! yay!  i wonder if getting a massage would help your back?  I had one last week, she rubbed my feet and legs...Heaven! and my back!  I wanted it to last for 4 hours instead of 1 haha!  I laid on my side the whole time... it was great!!!!!

Hayley-  Looking forward to hearing on which route you will be taking!  Baby B flipped for me, so if Baby A does now, maybe I will have a chance of a vaginal birth..... I would Really like to try that!  My doc just keeps saying "we'll see".....

Evelyna79:

I am glad that you enjoyed the 4D U/S! Isn't that something?
Hope that your nausea will go away soon and the chiro will be able to help.
I will be only one week behind you (if Jacob decides to come on time) - it's getting sooooooo real now!

mhv:

Great to see that your appointment went well! Fingers crossed for natural delivery - come on, Baby A :-) Your new bump pic is awesome!!!

Sisi:

Congratulations, girl!!!! I am so happy to see that Mason is doing great:-))) Now rest as much as you can, new Mama:-)))

All:

I ordered maternity belt because it's too hard to walk and stand for me- I get lots of weird pains, a lot of pressure and my back hurts so bad... Hopefully the belt will do it's job.
Did anyone started leaking colostrum yet? I have noticed that my breasts were leaking a couple days ago. It's still very mild, but if it gets heavier I will have to start wearing those pads I bought some time ago.

Have a great weekend, everybody:-)

Oh I forgot, let's pray for our friend Sisi. She may have to deliver little Mason early due to problems with the placenta. Let's keep her and Mason in our prayers.
