Quick Update

I’m still here.

Still miserably pregnant.

I cry every night.

So worn out.

Every bone, tendon, nerve, muscle and parts I didn’t know I had…hurts.

So swollen. My fingers and toes look like little sausages.

It hurts to move.

It hurts to sit still.

Last night I was up all night with the stomach flu.

Talk about adding insult to injury.

I know it’s best for them to keep cooking.

But it’s still really hard.

Really hard.

This is *nothing* like being pregnant with a singleton. Not just because Henry was small…but just the extra energy that two little babies pull from you.

I’m a bad blogger. Yesterday was Father’s Day. Today was our 7 year anniversary. Tomorrow is Henry’s 2nd birthday. Not sure I’ll have the energy to post about any of them. Ugh…

(sorry, didn’t mean that to be a big whine-fest…but I’m being honest. not looking for pity, just updating…)

I'm a mom to four. A wife to one. I believe in story. I love telling you about mine and would love to hear yours. There's really no sense in wasting our suffering and not sharing in each other's joy. We're all in this together...even if it doesn't always feel like it.

    Happy Anniversary. Happy Birthday Henry!

    The swolleness means it will be soon right? Soon. When do you hit 36 weeks? Will you go off of bedrest at that point?

    That's what I love about you, Jeannett – that honesty. And we will all look forward to meeting your girls and heaving sighs of relief when they come. Then you'll be back to blogging in no time (maybe). Love you and praying for you.
