Thoughts? Twin moms

Sa

I’m currently 31 weeks and I’d like to stop working at 33 weeks. My babies are due at 36 weeks. I’m a teacher and have already put in my FMLA paperwork.

I have an awful class this year and with a twin pregnancy, I’m over it. One of my twins has IUGR and I’ve been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I have to find someone twice a day to come watch my class while I go check my blood sugars. I’ve been getting more and more BH. My feet are swollen at the end of the day because I’m always up and walking around. I feel like such a shitty teacher because at times I just need to sit and teaching from a chair is not effective. I’m constantly out of breath.

I have RLS and it takes me forever to fall asleep, most nights I wake up for two hours at a time and can’t fall back asleep. I’m just SO stressed because I feel like I can’t do what’s best for my babies or my students. I just feel like I’m failing at every part of my life. And I’m so tired of crying every night over this. I don’t need to save time because by the time I can return back to work, it’ll be summer.

Should I ask my doctor to sign me out of work in two weeks?
