I know I have so much to be thankful for, great and understanding job, loving family, healthy babies. I'm just so emotional lately. I'm in such a funk of emotional exhaustion. I'm mostly bed rested being 34 wks with twin girls that are at the top 99 percentile in weight and fluid! I'm only 5' tall and am exhausted just going to the bathroom. My BP and HR are great though.
I know we are at the home stretch and I'm so ready to meet the girls. The emotions with all this is already high, but now my husband is sick with a rare illness, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, from a tick bite. The illness itself is curable because we caught it early, but the fear of organ damage and this toes are still questionable on healing properly. I've been trying to take care of him, but there are still a lot of unknowns being so early. The added stress of both our mothers "killing" me with questions and suggestions, which I know I shouldn't complain about, but makes me feel like I can't even take care of him. I'm just so overwhelmed and scared. This illness just really pulled the rug from under me and I need to brush it off and deal with what I can, one thing at a time. And now I have to make sure I don't get bit too!!
Just needed to vent. Thanks!

Wow, I've heard of that illness, it's pretty serious, that must be scary! I'm so glad you guys caught it early and I hope he recovers soon.
Make sure you're getting the rest you need too, I can't imagine how uncomfortable I'd be with one more baby in me.
My mother is coming to town Monday with my father to help for a few days. So we are just going to rest this weekend.
You ladies Rock!!
That's very scary!! I'm so glad they caught it early.
