No outside play guilt

Wow ! Bundling up that many kids is time consuming for any of us who have to do it. It takes me about 5 minutes a kid and I dread it. I have to do it twice a day and it is not a happy time for me.....let alone for you bending and having to do it at 38 weeks. I can't imagine how you would even consider it - yikes !! LOL

I have toboggans but I will not pull any kids on them even though I am not preggo. I needed back surgery last year and will not pull kids because I don't want to end up in the hospital again and hurt myself. It is not worth it.

I think the parents would probably expect you to take it slow and easy right about now

I'm in the same boat KingstonMom!
I am 32 weeks pregnant myself and its #5 so I am HUGE already LOL.
Its been so icy outside even when its melted here so haven't been going on walks unless my older children are home (afterschool) or my husband is off on Mondays so he helps me take them on walks then too.
As for playing in the backyard, I need probably 15 mins to get all 4 toddlers plus my own toddler dressed and bundled to get outside then its only a matter of a few mins before one of them takes off their hat/mitts/boots and starts complaining of the cold. So needless to say we only go out now a couple of times a week.
Don't feel guilty about it. I did initially but now that these kiddos seem to be really into painting/colouring/stickers/playdough now that really helps keep them busy those days we don't manage to go outside.
