These past couple of days have been pretty rough. Physically I am exhausted, uncomfortable, swollen, and achy all over. Emotionally, I am terrified, excited, anxious, thrilled and apprehensive at the idea of finally meeting my twin girls. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining, really. I have had a wonderful, text book pregnancy considering I am carrying twins. I have almost made it to 37 weeks and will be delivering in 10 days via c-section at exactly 38 weeks. Apparantly, this is not very common in the twin world. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd make it this far. Mark and I were told we'd be lucky if I lasted 32 weeks. Little did they know, my girls are in no hurry to relocate. It feels great knowing that my girls have been snuggled in safely for this long and I'm praying that this will mean less time (if any) in the NICU.
So with this being said, I thought I'd start a blog for all of our friends and family to follow as the countdown to Isabella and Stella's arrival begins. In 10 days, at the very most, our lives will be turned upside down and we will embark on the best ride of our lives. For all of you who don't know us or who don't live nearby, I hope to give you a glimpse at how crazy life is when you're raising twins.
