Hello all...I have been MIA

Hi ladies. I feel like a big jerk for being so absent lately. I have been lurking for the most part when I can, and sporadically responding to posts. I am so happy for everyone that has gotten a BFP lately and have been trying to keep track of your updates.
My (pregnany induced) carpal tunnel syndrome kept me away for a while. I ended up getting cortisone shots recently at the recommendation of my OB, and ended up having a flare reaction to them, rendering my hands almost completely useless for a few days. That's handy when you have a toddler to take care of. General exhaustion and a rush to tie up things at work/home, spend as much one on one time with time with V as I can, etc. has kept me running around more than I should be at this point.
Today is officially my last day of work (from home) and my maternity leave starts tomorrow. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted just typing that. My next OB appointment is on Thursday (sono, cervix check, etc.) and assuming everything looks good (BPPs for both babies looked great last week) my primary OB will be scheduling my induction for May 3rd (at 36 weeks). Both babies have been vertex for a few weeks now, so hopefully they haven't changed position (it doesn't feel like they have). I can't believe we are so close to meeting our twins!
Again, huge congrats to all of the recent BFP ladies! Good luck to those of you TTC again, and welcome to all of the new mommies. I will try to be around more often until the babies get here!

Ouch! So sorry to read about the carpal tunnel.
But hooray for maternity leave! Enjoy your 'rest' these next few days leading up to your induction. So excited for you, Momma!
