Pressure to provide dates for mum and dad to visit

Wolfie slept until 6.45 and we got up at around 8. I decided to have a lazy day today.

I got a phone call from mum in the morning and she passed me onto dad who then started asking me about when they could come up. It was less than 24 hours since a date for possible induction was pencilled in. I felt really pressurised into making a decision there and then. I told dad that I would let him know tomorrow what dates would be good for them but he was a little huffy that I would not tell him strait away. I had to tell him that as I was getting used to it myself and that I would get back to him soon he was not really happy but accepted it. I was not going to be pressurised to make a decision on the spot.

I was hoping to use the time between finding out yesterday and (if I had not had the twins by then) the induction to get used to the idea. It is almost like I have to produce a baby to a schedule and it does not work like that. I really wish that Devil boy had not told them about me getting an induction date.

I spent the rest of the morning not only fretting about that but also browsing the Internet and defragging my computer. At around 12 I tried to get Wolfie to get a nap.

Wolfie managed to get a nap but he did not nap for that long. I think he napped for about half and hour at the most. I am glad that he did nap though at least.

The rest of the day went well. I was supposed to go over and visit Devil boys mum and dad while they are in the area but I really did not have the energy to do so. They are going back tomorrow so I will visit them in the morning.

I have registered with a discussion board for multiple pregnancies so I am hoping to find some good tips on looking after twins as well as getting them into a routine.

My night was uneventful but I have decided that I am going to tell dad that it would be good for them to book the cottage form the 30th January. This will mean that if I am to be induced I will have lots of time to have a worry free labour and time in the hospital and a few days at home to bond with the twins as well as give Wolfie chance to get used to the twins being there.

Even thought he night has been uneventful it has gone far too quickly as I feel guilty because I have not only not got a lot done but I also have not had the energy to run about after Wolfie either.

I am hoping that a combination of having this restful day and having a good night’s sleep will mean that I will feel better tomorrow.
