Purple, a boy, hurray! Had to read out to DH that you had seen a willy and balls because it made me giggle so much. I had no idea you could see balls on a scan! I was right, I was right! ignores fact that had 50-50 chance of picking correctly and therefore am not psychic
I hate nappy bags too, Jen - surely a nice large satchel would do? I hate the fact that lots of change bags are nylon and look cheap despite costing ££s. You just need somewhere to carry a folding change mat, nappies, wipes, bum cream and a complete change of clothes, surely?
Sorry to hear you feel so awful, Jen - FX for the MS letting up soon! You too, Bartlet.
Dream, I really think you should take it more easily. Is there any way your work can accommodate less physical activity? There is no way you should be lifting 6 year olds, or running/playing hopscotch etc. It's your second pregnancy so your body is under more strain, I think, and it is twins so double the strain of one. I am much less physically able this time around than I was last time - partly it is the SPD and the extra weight, though. Remember, though, women carrying twins used to be put on mandatory bed rest for weeks on end (in 1983, I know - not sure how long it continued after that). I know that was probably going a bit far and modern doctors wouldn't advise it, but the point is that you do need to rest. Mum was in hospital on bed rest when she went into labour with us at 35 weeks - she had been overdoing it (helping Dad bang in fence posts 
) and had some bleeding. She was told that she should have been on bed rest earlier as all twin mums were prescribed it, but as the doctors had refused to believe her dates and gone on fundal height instead, they hadn't realised she was carrying twins until only a couple of weeks before we were born.
