Although the oregnancy was not "a piece of cake" she carried those adorable,identical little girls just FIVE days short of their due date!God is good!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03474962181190746322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6966847528840314277.post-79554185194611668192010-06-08T05:59:26.667-07:002010-06-08T05:59:26.667-07:00you may have already found these sites, but i'...you may have already found these sites, but i've learned a ton from kellyscloset.com and their blog http://www.theclothdiaperwhisperer.com/<br /><br />we are going to use disposables at the beginning for a few weeks until we feel we can add the laundry of the diapers. we got a diaper sprayer that connects to the toilet that sprays down solid messes right into the toilet to make dealing with poop easier. (you don't need to do this if they are only breastfed, just when you introduce solids or formula) Check out the sites for tips on washing and for reading up on all the different kinds of dipes. good luck!Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16811784941581874209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6966847528840314277.post-77092935194543413362010-06-03T12:48:39.907-07:002010-06-03T12:48:39.907-07:00almost there! my swelling got bad at the end too. ...almost there! my swelling got bad at the end too. but it's only for a few more weeks. make sure you stay hydrated. even if 35 weeks is "full term" for twins, I encourage you to think about the possibility of trying to keep them in as long as possible. not that you can control that but there's a mindset there. there's no question that the longer they are in you, the better their latching will be, the stronger their lungs and immune system will be. my ob/gyn said that she would rather deliver smaller babies who have been in the womb longer than larger babies who were born before 37 weeks. good things to come!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6966847528840314277.post-29572063599562500542010-06-03T06:55:53.970-07:002010-06-03T06:55:53.970-07:00I hear ya on the 'swollen' thing - I had t...I hear ya on the 'swollen' thing - I had to ditch my wedding ring as well after it was stuck for 4 days over the long weekend. It was a little bit of a bummer to not be able to wear it anymore... <br /><br />Glad things are coming along w/ the house - hopefully it will be done before the babies arrive!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13876304376958575270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6966847528840314277.post-21985001377681278742010-06-02T19:58:30.515-07:002010-06-02T19:58:30.515-07:00Hang in there and I hope things go well and hope t...Hang in there and I hope things go well and hope the swelling improves soon.
