About 2 weeks ago I was having a VERY hard time walking because it hurt so bad...ahem...down there.
It wasn't pressure, it was the bone. I laid around for awhile hoping it would go away and it never did. So I called the doc and he had me come in. After an exam...down there...the doc concluded that my pubic bone is separating due to the extra weight of the babies.
GREAT! What exactly does that mean for me?
#1- Get a maternity belt
#2- Don't be up walking around for more then 30 min at a time.
#3-Use a wheel chair anytime you go to the store.
#4-No lifting or carrying
#5-Listen to your body.
#6-Avoid walking.
Yep, its been a rough couple of weeks. IT hurts like crazy. Nearly all the time. Apparently I really just need to take an anti-inflammatory i.e. ibuprofen but can't because it disrupts the way the blood flows through the babies' hearts.
I'm not trying to complain. I have had a near perfect pregnancy even for twins. And for that I am so thankful. I am ALSO so thankful for my mom and my dad, they have been taking Jax and Dyl every weekend they possibly can. Sometimes more then just one night. As much as I miss them while they are gone I know that they are having more fun, and doing more things then if they were here with me. Plus it allows me to just rest. Rest my mind and my body. And boss Ben around. hehehe. I'm needing and wanting to "nest" but can't do it for myself. He is such a trooper.
Jackson informed me last week that "we never do anything fun" and I just cried. I feel so bad that the boys are having to "put up" with a mom who is nearly out of commission and is going to be SO SO busy with new babies soon. Will they understand? Will they even remember? I don't know. I just want to go back to being the best mommy I can be.
But this too shall pass...as of yesterday no longer then 4 weeks. The doc wants me preggers for at least 3. And I'm just praying I am able to endure for another 2. One day at a time....One day at a time.
