20 Weeks

I made it to 20 weeks today and doing well. I felt one of the babies move on Tuesday evening!!  I lost my assistant at work so I have been struggling this week with handling patients, not sitting as much and being very tired. My therapists have been very helpful in assisting with chasing kids who don't want to leave the gym and picking up kids. Most of my patients are very aware of my belly and love to touch it and hug it.

I worked from 8am-8pm today because we had CPR training for 2 hours after work. It was a very long day, but I am glad I refreshed my lifesaving skills before the babies are born.

Next week our public schools start and my caseload drops considerably to about 4-5 patients a day which I am so looking forward to and thankful for my OTs taking on more patients. If I am going to make it past 34 weeks, I need to sit down more. I will be working at the front desk, doing more evaluations, and more administration stuff (love Quickbooks).

Still working on my registries. I have a lot more stuff to get according to some moms who have looked. I had no idea I would need so many towels, burp cloths, etc. I'm clicking away, but I am not a shopper!

Tomorrow I have an OB appointment to check on heartbeats and weights. Excited to see how much they have grown. I hate getting on the scale myself, but I know the weight gain is essential for growing babies and there is much more to come. Still awaiting the Maternit21 test results.
