28/29 WEEK UPDATE!

I went to the doc today. The babies are doing great! Both measured 28 weeks and 3 days (I was 28 weeks and 4 days today), so they are right on track. Baby A weighed 2 pounds and 10 ounces and Baby B weighed 2 pounds 14 ounces. Heatrates were good as well, both in the 150's. The only down side to the appointment was that I have to stay at home for about 3 weeks to get some rest. Last Friday I was having too many BH contractions in an hour, so I had to go in and get monitored for about 5 hours. They gave me two shots of Terbutaline and they slowed down which is good news, but so far I'm still having to take the medicine to keep them from occurring too much. So I'll be at home for a few weeks getting some rest. I go back on November 7th for my next checkup. The doc says I HAVE TO GET to 32 weeks. We don't won't them coming before then. Of course our goal is 37 weeks, but with twins we take small goals at a time. Oh and the other good news is that I've only gained 25 pounds so far. That's pretty good for twins. At least I think! Oh, and one more thing. The U/S tech did the 4D U/S on me today. She just did it as a treat, but unfortunately she was only able to get one baby. Baby A just wouldn't cooperate and he had his head down. So if they ARE identical I guess I'll just have to share the pics. HA!



This is Baby B. He is head down and run's along my right side. Doesn't he look so sweet?


I can't wait to meet these little guys!


This was another pic of Baby B!

PS - I think my computer might be okay, so as of right now I'm still using it. My settings just got reset and somehow everything got moved.
