28 weeks and counting

This week marks number 28 and therefore another visit to the doctor with an ultrasound. Sheesh are we ever packing on the weight this month! I have crossed the 20 lb. mark myself, but thankfully almost 3 pounds of that gain was baby! Yay kiddos! Another bit of good news is that Baby B moved and now both babies are head down. This makes a natural delivery more promising. So not a lot of news today, but the news we got is worth celebrating. I now see the doctor every 2 weeks, with ultrasounds every 4 weeks. Time is going fast and I can hardly believe we are already in our 3rd trimester. Soon enough our babes will be here and you can all find out what they are! :) Thanks for checking in!

25 weeks and counting

On Wednesday I had another appointment with my doctor. Ultrasounds come at every appointment now as normal protocol for twins, so that's kind-of fun. :) The babies look good and are good size for where they should be at this point. A is 1 lb. 13 oz. (47%ile) and B is 1 lb. 11 oz. (33%ile). They moved positions since last time, A is head down, feet up on my right side. B is head on my left, feet on my right....kind-of laying right under my diaphragm. Doctor said that if one stays head down, we will plan to deliver normally. If the lower one turns breech, they will schedule a c-section. April still seems so far away, but I know it will be here before we know it. We are currently working on Mason's big boy room so we can move him and then make final preparations to the nursery. I'm anxious to get that project completed. We are also in the process of shopping for a mini van. There is a lot out there, just praying God will make it clear which one is the right one.
