Sonya, not long to go now till your scan! How exciting. Let us know how everything goes.
Paula, I read it's best to sleep on your left side because of some vena something or other - something that helps with circulation - but is it a definite no-no to sleep on the right? Even though I'm only early days, I have been putting pillows on both sides of me and alternating between the left and the right, albeit still trying to sleep on the left more than the right. I felt guilty when I slept on my back but if that's okay then great! Be interested to hear what your ob says.
Hey Lise, I saw SATC2 for my Friday jailbreak - have I said this already? Swear I've already got PG brain - at least that's my excuse and I'm sticking with it. Anyway, had a good laugh and thought it wasn't too bad at all, though some of my friends are absolutely panning it. Three weeks to go ... I imagine you're all ready with bags packed and nursery set up etc. It's funny, I did what LondonMiss said not to do ie read all the things that can go wrong in PG (obviously due to my very worrying start) but the one thing I haven't been able to bring myself to read is anything to do with labour! Ha! Scares the pants off of me. Still I can understand your being over being uncomfortable and so totally wanting to meet bub.
AFM, asked my zillion questions of my FS this morning. I am having one more week off work (next week) and then gradually going back for 2 days and working up to three days, maybe 4 days - all depending on how I go. He's also starting to wean me off the drugs, and from today I need only be on 3 prog pess which means no setting the alarm for 1 or 2 in the morning and then not getting back to sleep. Yay! Also, he said I can drive. OMG, it's the small things in life that you so appreciate when they're taken away. So now I can duck down and get some fish for dinner instead of having to wait for DH to get home late from work and ask. Maybe I should change my name to "Miss Independence" but I do hate asking all the time instead of just doing it myself. More good news is that the blood clot looks to be very small now. Both twins are growing well. I have a bit of a tum already FS is still saying they could be identical, even though they have their own sacs and placentas so I suppose we'll have to test the placentas after birth to be positive - if they're both the same sex that is. Only downer is he is saying my best time will be from about week 14 to week 25, and then he would recommend giving up work! Plus he recommends a ceasar. Oh well, spose we just wait and see how things go.
I want to just say thanks to everyone for being hear to listen and for your advice etc. Not many other people understand unless they've been through a similar thing - so THANKS!
