Hey! I know how you are feeling. These messageboards is what gets me through the rough days. I feel just useless. Everyone keeps telling me that I am doing such a great job growing these babies etc. but it is hard just to sit here allllllll day. Its crazy its just like every day is the same thing. I just keep my focus on these babies. They have to get bigger and be healthy! Id rather sit here for 5 more weeks than be in the NICU that long. Hang in there girl!

My husband has been amazing through all this. I have been on bedrest for 4 weeks now and hopefully 5 more. (not that I want to because I hate sitting here but for the babies I know its the best!)

My husband has done SO much! He finished up the babies room, set me up a recliner in the spare room with windows. Every morning we get up he sets me up with breakfast, snacks, water, my laptop and books. He has cleaned the house like crazy! He cleaned out the whole refrigerator and pantry! He has cooked dinner for me too. He also bought me a new bra what a guy! haha
