First off Emily Happy Belated Birthday Wishes to you, second I was holding my last antihistamine I've had in my hand bag since last year debating it. I never had it in the end, I don't understand one minute I am fine, the next I can't stop sniffing and sneezing, last nights sleep was the worst, hot, bothered and bunged up. I'm going to a country park for a BBQ this afternoon, I think ill pop one otherwise my weekend will be ruined. Always worse first thing in morning. I know pregnancy sends your sinuses haywire anyway but this is ridiculous. I didn't even suffer that bad last year!
Miraculous I'm still get my head around the 2. I'm feeling wider and tighter, almost uncomfortable but can't out my finger in whether or not it's just because I am putting on unnecessary weigh or if it's the terrors within lol. I cannot lay on my front at all, feels like I'm laying on a small ball. I sleep side on so stomach touches bed but not full frontal even that's starting to ache, got pillow between legs to help the muscle/sciatic pain I have going on. Laying in my back is quickly becoming a no go as well.
It's my 16 week midwife on Monday so get to finally have a few answers about how this pregnancy may pan out, labour wise anyway. Trying to figure out my due date if they don't let multiples go full term means bubs can be born anytime from 9th Nov! I think it's all based on their conclusion of risks. I don't see why I wouldn't be allowed to go closer to full term, I'm healthy, 26, first pregnancy, no real issues apart from asthma but as I've got older these are more panic attack-esque when I think I can't breath!
Peace I'm an avid fb user. Used to my advantage about how amazing and perfect life is (cough) luckily I have quite understanding friends and no one dared mention anything about babies, we sickeningly announced our double news during the speeches at the wedding so all of our nearest an dearest were there who we wanted to know first, and no one said anything (except my auntie whose fb is so private it was a passing on comment on a photo she took and no one noticed it) so we officially announced on fb a over a week later (I was having a I hate my body moment) and DH decided that if everyone knew I'd be less paranoid about my weight gain. So I/we announced. Lots of positive likes and comments, followed by my best friend and sister having their own statuses about being 'aunties' which spread down the grape vine further than I ever thought.
When I got back to work last week, I had a feeling people already knew my news although I'm not friends with anyone in the office except one and she's known and been my confidant since day dot, and my boss knew at 8 weeks as I was having a tough time and felt I should let her know so it never left their lips. However a friend who was at my evening reception, told her mother in law who works in my office and I think that's how the 'rumour' started. I've confirmed rumour now and I don't mind, a weight has been lifted and I don't feel like I'm being sneaky anymore haha
Sorry for such a long post.
Last but not least catface feeling your emotions ofc, everyone's been dying to buy or give me something but we've said no ATM although I got a few bits second hand about a week ago (1car seat etc) but I think we're waiting until we know the flavours before we give people the go ahead to buy stuff. I have at least 4 people desperate to knit!!!
