Things remain stable at present and we hope & pray all stays that way for the next while.
Coming up will be Wk27 so we are slowly heading towards a somewhat safer area for the twins, but we dont want any surprises anytime soon.
Our lovely SM is still in the hospital under observation. Although Im sure its terribly boring for her there, we are confident our clinic and doctors have everyones best interests in mind and we are most happy with their decisions regarding the care of our surrogate mother and babies.
Last weekend we had a lovely overnight trip to celebrate our 5 yr wedding anniversary. A nice drive out of town in the new car, a wonderful getaway. Otherwise domestic duties reign. Sorting, rearranging, tidying- the nesting continues!
Ive been enjoying doing a little reading/research (as always!). Although we are still too afraid to begin the nursery, reading about our hopeful future has been good. I realise these books are a guide only, and most parents say you figure it out along the way, but I have found some nifty hints and tips Im sure to use. I cant wait to start rummaging through those storage containers for all the baby goodies Ive slowly been collecting over the last 2 years! Saying that I hope to wait a while longer...
It was week 29/30 before we could start imagining our nursery. You are getting so so so close to the safe zone now, I am just thrilled for you both!!
ReplyDeleteCan recommend the contented house with twins book... has worked well with our 3! time will fly and won't be long now till you hold your babies!
ReplyDeleteSuper happy to hear that everyone is holding steady at this point! Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful how weeks are passing by now? As it gets darker and colder outside here, it sure is nice to make preparations for the trip! We are 27w4d today and ticking, hopefully many more weeks still.
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for you!
I was waiting for an update and I'm so glad everything is going well. Not long now........ Best wishes and I hope the bubs stay inside for as long as possible xx
ReplyDeleteHappy belated anniversary! I've been thinking of you. When you're done reading, how about a lil blog report for those of us who are still working up the confidence to purchase some baby reads:)
ReplyDeleteWe didn't start the nursery until 32 weeks, 27 weeks is great, one more week they are viable, you could safely start the nursery now.
ReplyDeleteyou're just about on the home stretch now!. Best wishes for you all. So very excited for you.
ReplyDeleteNice books. I do buys secondhand books for brother's baby. Encourage children to explore and express their creativeness to help strengthen a child’s positive self-image.
