Its not the destination, but the journey.

Yesterday I found out I have gestational diabetes. The doctor told me months ago that I was at a higher risk due to twins. Its not the end of the world but it does increase risk factors for both me and the babies. I spent yesterday processing all the information I was given and cleaned out my fridge, freezer, and pantry. I will manage this with diet, if I cant I will be on pills or insulin which increases all of our risks. Preterm labor is still our biggest risk.

Ive said many times that this is my best pregnancy yet. I still feel that way. I am now 25 weeks and this is considered a viable pregnancy; meaning if I had them today they most likely would survive. For me its about the quality of life though. Their parents trusted me with the most precious things in the world and I am determined to see this through. To give their babies the BEST chance at life. Doc said light duty from here on out. Our next milestone is 28 weeks, then 32, then 35. At 36 I am full term for twins and I am not delivering before then! 36 to 38 weeks is my goal and I rarely do not reach a goal :)

This is a journey in my life I will never forget. I don't know why they chose me, but they did. And these little ones chose me too. I feel blessed to be a part of this process and cannot wait to meet these two special spirits.
