Jamie Otis Instagram – They may call me geriatric 👵🏻 with this pregnancy but mama can still get down💃 …kinda 🤪🤣
Everyone says “you need to slow down” and “it’s time to relax you have twins in there!” but honestly, I’ve never known how to slow down or relax — even when pregnant!🤰
I’ve taken my kids to drop off and pick up every single day this week, I’ve continued to do alll the normal work, house chores and parenting things I’ve always done bc I know when the babies come I won’t be able to do as much – esp with my older two kiddos – and I want that quality time with them now!🙏🙏🙏
I have been cleaning & sorting more than ever — trying to donate all the extra stuff we don’t need anymore so the house is more tidy.
I always feel like there’s so much to do when I’m pregnant and actually the chiropractor and OBGYN both agree that laying around in bed all day isn’t good for my body or the babies so I keep trying to live normal life & do all the normal things🙌 … but every once in a while I do a bit too much and pay for it later.🤪😅
This weekend I’m hoping to get hospital bag packed, bags for my older two in case it happens at night, and maybe we can squeeze in a trip to get a new minivan?!! And I really wanna tackle the nursery bc it looks like a tornado went through that room – I’ll have to show ya in stories!🫣 I also want to get their bassinets/changing station set up in our bedroom!
Writing it out now, there’s not a chance I can get minivan and nursery done in the same weekend l so I’ll have to choose one or the other … and since car shopping is an all day thing & my older kiddos don’t love car shopping I’ll prob do nursery & save the car shopping for a day their in school🙅♀️🤣
Anyway! I’m trying to get as much done as possible so we can feel ready for these baby boys🤰👶👶
When you’re pregnant do you keep the same routine or make/allow yourself to rest more? I said to myself when I got pregnant with these twins “this time I am going to make myself rest more!” but honestly, there really is no time to rest and get stuff done! I feel like that’s probably the case for most of us mamas!🤰❤️
