Bedrest....

Yes I've been put on bedrest...o joy. I can only get up to use the restroom, shower or get something to eat. Its okay tho, cuz I really can't fight back or argue against it when I'm feeling so freaking heavy! I actually have to take break while getting something to eat...that feels embarassing...but my feet start to throb and pain from carrying the boys is getting to me so i really have no choice in the matter. I cant even get to the computer to make a blog, but lucky for me i remember'd that i can email it :). That just made my day...cuz seriously I'm bored out of my mind. Im laying in my bed in this one size fits all dress...(looks like a colorful tent really) and untill i remember'd i could email a blog post i was staring at my closet (laying on ur left is best for the babie).
O btw i got everything for the twins...well almost all i'm missing is the crib spacer and either a bobby or a twin nursing pillow. I haven't really decided on which one will work better for me. In regards to the crib spacer...i read somewhere that they really shouldn't sleep together but according to some twin more that i've spoken with their twins wouldnt sleep unless together. My understanding at this point is untill they start wacking eachother or rolling the spacer isn't needed, they can lay side by side since their use to being together. But once they start rolling or using the arms as weapons towards eachother then i'll putin the crib spacer and after that seperate cribs side by side.
I'm so excited for my boys!!! I'm at 35 weeks and feeling so heavy, so honestly I've been on the selfish side wishing to pop soon....but of course u really cant predict or rush them... they'll come when then good and ready. I have a neonatologist appt on friday so i curious to see what he has to say on how big they are...but who knows, i'll be 36 weeks that day never know if i'll just magically go into labor lol.

Twin Bump

Taken 5/29/11 @34 weeks and 2 Days :)
 Had a Really nice BBQ at the Grandma's, too bad i quickly got tired and week after having two contractions that didn't even go anywhere.....
O The joys of boring NST's, texting my twitter acct is the only thing that saves me
This picture was taken today after i was strapped to the monitor, lucky for me my nurse got both of the little guys heartbeats on the first try.... which made made the process so much smoother. When its normally an hour process it sucks when they can't get the babies right away, cuz u just end up being strapped up longer

Contractions????

So yesterday I went to the Hospital to have another Non-Stress Test (NST) done, and ended up finding out that i was having contractions 13 minutes apart. To be honest I had a rush of excitement and fear pulsing through me. I know it was too soon to actually start having either one of those feeling plus I just got into my 33rd week.... and i need to cross my fingers and hope i make it to at least 36 weeks or farther....

BIG BABIES

Today i really don't even feel like being up or watching my adorable diva niece :P (who at this very moment is taking her baby doll on a walk and making sure she's fed... hella cute)
BUT I'M TIRED AND HEAVY!! these boys really weigh me down, pulling at my back and ribs and at times laying down doesn't even feel very good...just more pressure. What i could really use is a great, long and wonderful back massage!!! The hubby tries but i know he's tired from working... understood...trust me i truly understand standing on your feet all day at a register and having to be super happy with customers even when you don't feel super happy....BUT i just want to scream on the top of my lungs DO U KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO CARRY THESE GUYS???!!!!???? thats my hormonal and my exhausted talk, but i don't yell at him cuz he does try to rub me for a bit... its just nothing every feels long enough to at least get me in relaxed mode :(((

Child Birth Article

http://blogs.babycenter.com/mom_stories/childbirth-are-you-a-screamer/#comment-2931815
That link above should take you to the article I just read this morning, and trust me if you anything like me and are confused and completely lost about how you might take childbirth then read this. It pretty much lifted the boulder off of my shoulder. I'm constantly asking what am I gunna expect with childbirth and no one gives ANY positive NON SCARY feedback or at times they don't give any feedback at all and just say "O you'll be fine, don't worry about it." WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!!! <<< that's honestly what i feel like screaming back at them, but of course i don't i just move on from it and go about my business. I just don't want to freak out about it, i want to be calm and collect and I WANT INFO! and stories that aren't scary is that so hard to ask for... i mean really?????

Welcome to My Blog

I guess i should start off by letting everyone get to know me a little bit huh? My name is Kirsten but everyone either calls me Kay, KK or as my niece likes to say it TayTay :) I'm 23 and currently expecting twins, two boys. That i guess is the man reason why i titled my blog as Wittle Animals, because that's how i see them as. I'm even going with the Zoo themed nursery. I found Zoo animal wall stickers at the Dollar Tree so that helped kind of launch the idea plus Daddy to be has a thing for elephants so it was a win/win situation. However in regards to about me I'm clueless, not just on being a mother but I'm pretty much going crazy lately, that could be another reason that I'm taking time for this blogging stuff...i just kinds need a place to be able to not just vent, but to just talk about baby stuff that other people in my life don't really have time for. I dont feel like I'm on the edge of losing my mind but I have so many questions and concerns half the time and since I'm not the first person in my family to have kids, I tend to feel like my worries and my concerns are just brushed off as pointless...sometimes even my excitement feels that way as well but.....
