The recovery from feeling perpetually nauseous was finally over & things were supposed to be more predictable. Yeah, not for me…I got my first ever flu in my life with a cough that lasted weeks. It was more throwing up but now from uncontrollable coughing. I swear my babies were being thrown around but somehow they seemed to not be phased by it. I failed two 1 hour glucose tests & had to do the 3 hour test. (Not a joyous experience as my nausea started to came back) But I passed, phew.

The illnesses were part of my 2nd trimester unknowns but it was the stress of the registry weighing on me. The cribs I had selected were on backorder until after my due date. Stroller options were limited & prices varied widely. Best car seats for premies. Did I register for enough clothes, burp cloths, diapers? Do I need pacifiers or bottles? The endless hours I put into researching & compiling were crazy. Some things I bought were perfect, others I never used & then I always had to buy more. My baby shower was just around the corner, I was approaching my 3rd trimester & I was still having a hard time decorating for the twins room.
