    Well we went to my Peri appt. today and everything is looking great. I couldn't even explain to you how they are positioned. Last week baby A was breech on my left side and baby B was head down on my right. Now I think he said they are both breech and have switched sides-baby A now on my right and baby B now on my left. :huh: How that happened I don't know. But, they are both looking great. I had my first NST done and one of them was not cooperating. They found one heartbeat and thought they found the other, but come to find out it was the same heartbeat (something about the heartbeats can travel through the fluid?). Baby A (the girl) is weighing 3 lbs. 8 oz. and Baby B (the boy) is weighing 3 lbs. 7 oz. My peri doesn't think I'll make it to 38 wks. even though my cervix is nice and long-4.8. I'm just glad that they are so big for twins at this stage. Has there every been a situation where they had to deliver twins a little early because they were getting too big? It doesn't seem possible, but how big will they let them get before they deliver them. Just curious.

    Sounds like a great apt. You look great. I'm not really sure if they take them for getting too big, but I would image the bigger the better. My OB told me if I am too uncomfortable at 38 weeks he would take them. He doesn't want to do it earlier. I have a feeling they will come when the room gets too crowded. Good luck.

    You do look great! Mt sister had twins that were pretty big- nearly 8 lbs. for 1 and 6 for the other. She was 38 weeks. You and I have kids just about the same ages, and I have a Payton too! Just curious, what kind of stroller are you getting? Lisa

    You look wonderful! Isn't it amazing, you think you have no room left in there and they manage amazing acrobatic feats! Keep up the good work mom!

    You look great! I love belly pics! It honestly makes me miss being pregnant (though the memory is still pretty fresh so I get over it pretty quickly!) :) Sounds like a great appt and great est weights for your babies. I felt like my boys ran out of room around 32 weeks- that's when I became my most uncomfortable, but they hung in there for almost another 4 weeks. You'll be amazed at how much your belly can grow!! Good luck and thanks for sharing the belly pics- you really do look great!!

    We got the baby trend double snap-n-go. We will be using a regular stroller for my 2 year old that my oldest will push if we need to go out. When the twins get a little bigger we are going to be getting a side by side stroller.

    Us too! I had been hoping for the magical stroller that completely fit the bill for us, but I am convinced it doesn't exist!
