17 Weeks: Untitled

I couldn't think of a great title for this week; just not quite in the creative mood tonight. :-)  I'm actually a little over 17 weeks. After my last visit, they bumped the date just a bit. So, this means I will try to start updating on Sundays instead of Wednesdays to be better on track.

I loved my OB doctor that I saw this week. He was so informative and encouraging.  I got some iron supplements to help with the tiredness I'm feeling and he helped me try to consider whether to try for a VBAC or a c-section.  I know he can't predict, and he said as much, but he did tell me I could very likely make it all the way to 38 weeks.  Not sure if that was good news or bad news! Ha! Good news for the babes, a little dreadful for me.

I had Monday off from teaching and so decided to be pro-active and make a meal plan for the week, including starting the meals. I cooked all of the ground beef I'd need and put it into baggies. I ran out of steam and didn't make it to the grocery store to pick up the rest of the ingredients! I ordered the rest of the ingredients off of Coborns Delivers instead. Love this company. They dropped off my groceries at my front door while I was working and tonight I came home with everything ready to go. Yay!

I don't have much inspiration or deep thoughts to share this week. It's just a completely different pregnancy than a singleton pregnancy. I can't believe how different I feel (tired and sore and achy).  I'm hanging in there, but I still have quite a ways to go!

Next update on Sunday!
