I feel for you both. It is tough in the third tri with twins. I carried my two up to 38 weeks and they were both over 6lb so I was pretty massive.
I kind of did what kaydee suggested and got family to help as much as they could. I did what I could and then either my DH did some stuff or my Mum helped me out. I got them to do stuff like the vacuming and ironing (since I couldn't stand close enough to the ironing board lol)
If anyone asks you what they could get you perhaps you could suggest a cleaner for a couple of weeks or something? And don't stress to much if the place gets a bit untidy (you have a fantastic excuse!!)
Try and rest as much as you can so you don't put too much strain on your back. When you lie down on the couch or in bed do you put a pillow between your legs? I always found this helped to ease the back pain and I also ended up with a pillow under my belly while lying on my side to kind of help to hold up the weight (does that make sence) that helped with my back as well.
I bet you are counting down the weeks now. By the end I was so ready for those babies to be out so I could move again lol. It is such a wonderful experience being a Mum of twins. If either of you have any questions at all or want to chat about anything just send me a PM. Sometimes it is nice to hear someone else is going/gone through the same things as you. Would love to chat anytime.
