Hello everyone! So we had another appointment today. The ultrasound was really tough! She had a really hard time seeing who was who since they are so smooshed! But they still got all 2s on the biophysical profile. They are now estimated to weigh… Catie 6 pounds 6 oz. and Brian 6 pounds 2 oz. So I have almost 13 pounds of baby in me! Holy cow! They did a pretty good job on the heart monitoring this week too once we finally found the heart beats. That only took about 30 minutes usually takes about an hour or longer. I did eat a Twix for breakfast though… And took a couple swigs of Brian's Coke to give them a little caffeine! Maybe that's what woke them up a little bit and got them moving! We are 37 weeks on Friday! "Full Term" they will no longer be considered Preemies!
Dr. Stephens did ask how I felt about inducing today. He said he would do it if we wanted to but usually not before 39 weeks. I like the idea of being in control, but I want them to be able to cook as long as possible! He said we would hit on the issue again at the appointment next Wednesday, if we make it to that point.
He did check me today. I'm only dilated to about 2 cm. But, that's a start I guess… We will see how much longer I can hold out! Other than being really really tired and crampy I feel pretty good. It is hard for me to get up and down anymore but I still think I'm doing pretty good all things considered!
Anyway, that's the update for this week! We'll see if I make it to next Wednesday or if you all get a midnight call from Brian sometime this week! :)
Talk to you later,
