Update...all is well.

My tonsils were not dilated. I had a couple contractions on the monitor, but nothing significant, not really even uterine irritability. Babies' heart rates and movement were good. I was on the monitors for about an hour. Was there less time than I had anticipated. Naturally, I didn't feel anything there like I felt at home.

I don't really feel any better for whatever reason, I actually feel really depressed right now. I'm not sure why, might just be because things have been so busy lately, and I'm not sure how I'm going to get everything done while trying to take it easy and cook babies.

SO happy to hear all is well. I was so worried!

Find a way to take it easy as much as possible! I'm not sure what you have to get done, but is there anyone who can help? or hire help?

((hugs))

I just saw your first post and then this one - I'm so glad everything is ok!

Let people help you with things and take it easy! ((Hugs)) And if some of the things you're trying to get done are baby related, as my mother keeps saying, they don't NEED all of that cute, decorated stuff. You don't have to have everything 100% ready right when they come home. If you're like me, I know that you want to, but maybe it will help to keep that thought in the back of your head?

I'm glad everything is okay, Tricia!

I hope you're able to rest and get things done...hire some help if you need it.

I am SO happy to hear that everything is ok.

Take it easy as much as possible!! Rely on friends and family to help you with things that need to be done... People are always willing to help a pregnant woman!! :-)

Whew! So glad that things looked better. If I was around, I would totally pitch in and help you out. Maybe make a list of everything that needs to be done, prioritize it and then go from there. That's what always helps me feel less overwhelmed when I have a ton going on. I can visualize it and put it into order and then start tackling. Rest! And little princesses....behave for your mama!

I am glad everything is okay. I am sad you are depressed I wish I could help. What kind of things do you need done? I agree with others, I would start getting family and friends to help out. I agree with Laura, I know it would be great to have their room all done, but it's not as important and you can work on it later. I hope you can take it easy and not stress so much. Do you have any days off coming? You should take it super easy. I can't even imagine working the hours you do and still go to school. You are like super woman!

I'm glad all is well. ((hugs)) on feeling depressed. I hope it gets easier for you.

What a relief, Tricia! I'm so glad everything looks good with your little girls.

As far as feeling depressed, I am so sorry Sad I don't know what advice to give other than to try and take it easy. Many things can wait. Focus on the things that bring you joy in your life and of the blessings you and your husband are going to receive in a few short months. I know sometimes it can be difficult not to succumb to feelings of being overwhelmed, overtired, overworked, etc. Just keep in mind we're here for you and if talking about anything would help, I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say we'd totally lend an ear.

((hugs))

Thanks, ladies.

Most of the stuff I'm trying to get done now is school-related, so I'm pretty stuck on that one for now. Luckily the semester is over in the beginning of December, so I don't have much longer to go, and I only have one assignment, one quiz, and my final project left to do.

The rest is mostly house stuff, and trying to schedule people to come over when I'm not at work or school. Nothing too taxing, just a pain in the arse. We've been trying to get our deck stained/sealed, and it keeps getting put off due to rain, and our hardwood floors get installed next week...then our kitchen will get done sometime in December.

I've had to go to work extra a few times this week to get stuff done for employee health, and then there was my toxic mushroom trip, so that's kept me more busy than usual too.

I do get a fair amount of down time, I think it's just the long mental list that's getting me down, who knows.

Thanks for letting me vent, and thanks for the support!

yay! Glad everything looks ok. Try to take things easy...even if it means sitting down for a bit between your busy times.
I'm sure it's hard, but try to find the time. You want some fully cooked babies :-)
