36 week ultrasound

Just a little update from my ultrasound today. I am extremely excited to tell you that both babies are headed in the right direction! YIPEE! I really hope that I will deliver them naturally...but I guess we'll cross that bridge when its time for me to go to the hospital.
Anyways...Baby A measured in at 6lbs 2.5 ozs and Baby B measured in at 6lbs 7.5 ozs! Both heart beats were above 135...and both had alot of activity going on, as well they were praticing breathing.

I have a dr. appointment this friday...and can't wait to see what he says. I really want to make it until June, which is only 10 days away! The dr. won't let me go past June 4th, but would prefer the 5th if I make it that far anyways...whats the extra day.

Just one question....does the mucous plug always come out prior to contractions starting regularly? I had mine stripped and I was induced with my 2nd DD, but my 1st DD my plug came out the week prior to labour starting. I know every labour can be different, but was wondering if I would start labour with out "the show" or plug coming out.

THATS IT....

congrats on the great weights!!! good luck holding out til the 5th

 

How exciting! Everything is looking good!

With DS I went into labor without losing my mucous plug or any bloody show until I was actually in active labor. It was totally different with DD; but in my experience you can go into labor without any prior "warning" coming from "down there"!

 

Congratulations on a great appointment, it sounds like your little ones are doing great! As far as your plug I attempted an induction at 37 weeks. I did not notice anything before that point. I actually lost it in the bed during my induction, so I really don't know. I know that when I was 36 weeks I was praying to see something everytime I went to the bathroom! Good Luck they will be here before you know it.

 

Congrats on a fantastic appointment!

I do think you can start labor without the show!


Enjoy the final stretch Momma!

 

Juli -- glad to hear everything is perfect!! Wow, you're only two weeks away, at the very most -- hope those munchkins stay put for you, and that labor goes as smoothly as possible!

I had bloody show last time when my labor started, but I don't recall ever seeing (or noticing) the plug. I think it can happen even if you don't see either....

 

Great appointment! June 5th is a great day to have twins! :wub:

 

Glad to hear that you had a great appointment and great weights so far!!! 2 Weeks is so close, hang in there!!!

 

I am so glad that everything is going okay for you. You dont have very long left.

 

Hey Juli, didn't your babies just recently flip? It seems like I remember you posting something regarding not wanted a csection after to vag births?

Anyway, if they did just flip that gives me some hope (mine are both breech)! How was your OB appt today?

 

I went into labor without any notification from anything "down there". When them babies are ready, they'll let ya know. good Luck!
