Hi everyone!! Haven't been on here for ages now so apologies for not keeping u[ to date - there's so much to catch up on, I'll read all posts later on. We've just had a manic past week or two moving house. I'm glad we decided to move now instead of later on down the line when I'm bigger.... the stress of it all is crazy, I'm sure the little bubba's didn't appreciate all my stress hormones!!! All done now tho and the old house has been fully painted and cleaned so that the tenant could move in yesterday - big sigh of relief! Next big event is the twins arrival!!!!! Scary!
Well I'm 18+1 today, it's going quickly!! I had my first consultant appt last Monday and took my mum with me as she wanted to hear the heart beats. That was the first time I'd heard them too.... isn't it just amazing!!!!! I've also started to really feel them fidget inside. It's not so much kicking as lots of bubbles but it sure does feel good and reassuring!!! My husband has taken to laying his head on my tummy hoping to feel a kick but as yet, nothing!! Bit too early I think.
He's also in the process of making a CD for the twins so I can play it whilst they're inside so they get used to it, in the hope they'll be comforted by it when they're out. My friends wife did it for her, just some relaxing music they both liked and it seems to work, so we're going to give it a go!
As for stretch marks. I started using Bio Oil but developed a rash so I've started using CoCo Butter instead. The smell for me is much more appealing, and it really softens my skin, I can so tell a difference if I've not moisturised in a couple of days. But really, I agree with others, it's all in the genes. If you're going to get them, nothing will stop them. Just gotta keep your fingers crossed!!
Anyway, time to catch up on all your news!! May be some time....!!! :)
Take care all, x
