    I am so excited! [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] I read that the chance of long term problems, were the babies to be born prematurely, drops dramatically at 28 weeks! Wooo hoooo!!! I certainly don't want them to be born for several more weeks, at least 8 would be nice, but it is comforting to know if something were to happen they would have a good chance at this point!
    I can't wait until next week when we have our next ultrasound and find out how much they've grown! From the feel of them, it is quite a bit!

    Congrats!!! [​IMG]

    My peri told me last week that the babies have a 90% survival chance once you get to 28 weeks. I didn't think it was quite that high - but 28 weeks is GREAT!!
