34 weeks! WOOHOO!

I will have to dig the camera out later & take a pic!!! The OB said she will let me go to 38 weeks, but she figures they will be born between 35 & 37! We'll just have to wait & see!

As far as things go... I had an U/S on Monday... it was a different tech so I'm not sure how accurate it is... if you have the same tech everytime (which I did the last 3 times) they tend to be more accurate... plus this girl hadn't done a twin one in FOREVER.

Anyways everything is looking good... Baby A is head down... Baby B is currently transverse (though I think she flipped again last night I am praying she gets her little head down there!) They are measuring in the 50% for a SINGLE baby which is great. They are thinking if I can make it to 37 weeks they will be 6+lbs EACH!!! They are currently approx... Baby A 4lbs 14oz Baby B 4lbs 10oz... thats almost 5lbs!!!!

Then yesterday I had my weekly NST... everything looked great they were perfect like usual... I was done at the 20 minute min!!! Aparently of the 3 sets of twins that are due at our tiny hospital in a month time frame (the girls being the first) mine are 'the best' as the nurses have put it the last two weeks... the others take at LEAST an hour each time cause they refuse to stay on the monitors.

Then afterwards I went over to the OB's office. Got checked out, everything looks good! They are amazed that my petite frame is holding up so well. They have concluded I am built to carry twins :lol: . Anyways I was a day shy of 34 weeks & measuring 43!!!

I haven't been & still am not on any type of bedrest! Basically just been told to eat well, drink lots of water & rest when I get tired (which I TRY to do, but with a 22 month old doesn't always happen!) Thank god I have long legs & arms for someone my height so I can still drive my van! We go out & do something at least once a day, I can't STAND staying in the house all day!!!

Last night Zander 'moved in' to his big boy room!!! He helped daddy carry the bed in then RAN to his old room, got his bear bear (lovey) & brought it in & put it in his new room!!! We got all his stuff except some clothes & a few toys moved into his new room & we put his new big boy cars lamp up. & he has slept in there very well! I actually had to go in & wake him up at 10:30 & he didn't want to get out of bed! I will post pics later!

 

:Clap: YAY For 34 weeks!!!!!!!!!!

 

Hooray!! Sounds like everything is going perfectly, which is so good to hear. I hope these last few weeks continue to go smoothly for you....and I hope to follow in your footsteps!

I'm impressed that you're still taking your kiddo out every day -- I try, but it doesn't always happen....

 

Way to go! Sounds like you are doing great!

 

WTG! Congrats on making it to 34 weeks! Its quite an accomplishment in itself...trying to keep the babies in as long as possible! Sounds like the babies are both good sizes....not much longer and you will be holding them in your arms!

I am happy for you that your twins cooperate for the NST. I am also glad that your son likes his new big boy room. THat is great. Also it is good that you get out of the house everyday and dont stay in. That will depress you. Well good luck in the coming weeks.
