Week 33 twin pregnancy

Yeah, past the magical 32 week line! But its not all fun… I am soooo heavy, I can hardly get myself up from bed or the couch, plus I have a nasty cold and cough and my little boy has got it too! We both had a few daytime sleeps and a few rough nights together, mostly he sleeps in my husbands bed now.. I moved into our guestroom about a month ago as we were both not getting any sleep at all! Swelling is getting worse, went to see the midwife who checked urin and bloodpressure which is all good. Still no splints and my hands are now constantly swollen and the fingertips are numb. Scan on Friday went ok but the PI is up again for twin 1 and I need to come in for another scan in 5 days. After the scan we went into town to buy some early baby clothes, what a mistake to make, I just cant do this anymore, I creeped along the highstreet at minimum possible speed, my husband couldnt believe that I was beeing serious about having to walk so slow… it must have looked rediculous! Did buy some tiny little clothes though and a few other things. After an hour in town I felt like I had just conquered Mount Everest – twice Was absolutely shattered afterwards. Its couch and bathtub from now on, the girls love it when I chill out, they get really active, and its nice and reassuring to feel them! Phoned the surgery and the midwife about the splints, she forgot to do anything about it! I can do a self assessment and would get them in 3 weeks or wait to see the physio, next available appointment in 6 weeks – hahahaha!
