Sorry peeps- just a wee moan, here goes...
I have definitely hit a wall. Washing a cup exhausts me! I can't face going up the stairs in my house! My maternity tops don't meet my bottoms anymore as I'm so massive! I'm walking like a cowboy due to the pressure on my lady bottom bits from the inside! Poor wee Emilie is desperate for me to be a horsey this morning- she won't make do with mummy being a beached whale or an inactive hippopotamus instead.
And I'm only 33 weeks! I swear I'm going to explode soon!
Ok- better get back to trying to get up off this chair!

Aw poor you - I'm not surprised you're tired Lynie - that must be hard work carrying whose wee twinies about. I remember how heavy one is!!
I'm going to state the obvious now and say - rest as much as you can! Let everyone do everything for you. Put your feet up as much as possible. Get lots of things for you and Emelie to do together in one place, and make sure you're not going up and down the stairs any more than necessary.
Take care...and take it easy. Not too long to go now (although I know that's easy for me to say! lol)

I have to say I'm not really surprised! I had a tiny little round football bump and still struggled so I would imagine carrying 2 little monkeys around must be really tough. Tell Emilie that Daddy will be horsey when he gets home! Thats what I do when my hips play up, then when DH walks in the door Eds rugby tackles him to the ground and climbs on his back! Gives me a giggle too. Get lots of rest Mrs! Bring everything you'll need for the day down first thing. I used to keep a little rucksack by the stairs and use that so I didnt have to do more than one trip. Sending big gentle hugs (if I can get my arms around you!)

I kinda know how your feeling! Even though yours is a double bump, Im shattered constantly running round after 2 los and getting hit with insomnia at 3am everynight and needing the loo hourly before then Im just muddling by at the mo. Its been ok for a fortnight as Dave has been out of work and at my beck and call but hes gone for an interview today so looks like Ive lost that little luxury. Try and rest up as much as poss as the end is now in sight! Btw whats your due date?
