Stressful

It's really stressful right now. The boys will be here in 16 days if not sooner and I am freaking out. I have the basics for maybe the first few weeks and I'm freaking out about whether they're going home with me or somebody else and it just scares the hell out of me either way

Try not to stress yourself out.  It is not good for you or the babies.  You have said all along you may want to keep the boys for a week or two before making your final decision, why don't you just stick to that and see how it goes.  Once your boys are born, you will know in your heart what is best for them, whatever you decide.  Hang in there mama.  I can't believe the boys will be here in less than three weeks.  Time has really flown since you have joined the board.  GL and  breathe!

Ditto IRR! This is a big decision, but you've been doing a great job. It really is going to be ok. Do you have anyone close to you that you can rely on? Anyone to help with meals n such? Even if you end up deciding not to bring the boys home, you'll need to recover.

Hang in there momma! A few weeks of basics is all you really need right now as you figure out next steps. It's a scary process no matter what, but you can do it.

(( Hugs )) Take it one step at a time.  Stay healthy and as calm as possible for this last bit of pregnancy, and try and set up your support system for birth and after the babies are here.  You need people that will love and take care of you no matter which decision you make.  Don't pressure yourself to make the decision quickly, if you are most comfortable taking them home first then that is what you need to do.

 Be gentle with yourself, I know we will all be thinking of you and wishing the absolute best for you and your boys.
