It’s annoying (and sometimes hurtful – depending on the person and topic) when I send an e-mail to someone – whether a person I know or a government agency – and I never get a response though the e-mail is asking for a response and I know they’ve read my message.
I must be tired if I go into the restroom and I nearly fall asleep. Is the famous 2nd trimester burst of energy here yet? I honestly don’t know how much longer I can function like this. I told Jon last night that I can’t do this – I can’t take care of twin toddlers and be pregnant at the same time – it’s too draining. How do others do it? How in the world did Angelina do it? Sure, she probably had help from nannies, but still – she was a mother of 4 already! Trina – how in the world did you do it? You didn’t have nanny help. Any other mothers want to share their stories?
One day at a WW meeting someone mentioned that a certain store was selling Popchips – they were supposed to be healthy for you and they tasted good. Well, the next time I was at that certain store, I bought some and they were the yum! So I wanted to get some more when I ran out and there were no more to be had and they didn’t seem to think they should order more! So sad. I can find a teeny tiny bag at the grocery store, but I liked the bigger bag I got at this store. They must bring back Popchips!

How did you take care of your existing children while pregnant? It’s exhausting.
Sorry to hear you are so tired. I have no words of advice at all. And I’m really sorry to hear about the Popchips. I hate it when I fall in love with a product and I can’t find it anymore.
I had a 2 year old and 4 year old when I was pregnant with twins. It was rough and I had very little help. I honestly just let things go a bit…house cleaning and what not. The boys and I read lots of books, watched movies, and played on the floor while I could get back up on my own 😉 Laundry while always clean rarely made it into draws. We ate easy (but still healthy) meals, not too many ingredients, lots of casseroles. It easy to say just let things go a little, but doing it is another story all together. But it’s ok to have a messy house, and eat mac n cheese. In the end it’s more important to take care of yourself 🙂 Oh by the way I hope you don’t find me rude for asking but are you having twins again?
