OB Appt and NST yesterday

Well I am still tired from the nite at L&D.. But at the NST i was still having Contractions about every 6 minutes, But they were so little i didnt even feel 80% of them.

OB appt went good... I have only gained 1 Lb in the last 5 weeeks.. My Dr is not worried because i gained now 33 lbs all together. I measure at 43 weeks... :blink: one more week than last time....
Did a quickie U/S and he said both babies look great and they seem to not want to move out of their positions.. (They havent moved at all since 29 weeks.. grrr) We are still going to try a Vag Delivery since Baby A is Vertex..
I asked my Dr how long he thinks I have left.. His answer was very Technical.. "Most twin pregnancys deliver in 36 or 37 weeks." So no guess from the DR!!! :laughing: I dont seem to think that i will be making it that much longer.
Nesting has totally kicked in, and now it seems like everytime i get to doing something, I get painful contractions that go away after i lay down.. BUT there is soo much left to do!!!

We finally got the crib set up last nite and the changing table. We are getting things put away. I finally fell okay if the babies are born and comming home.. I just need to wash bottles and some more clothes...

Well thats about it!!

 

Glad to see an update. I'm sure you are tired. Take it easy!

 

Ashley, glad you are ok. Try and get some sleep.

 

Sounds like you are nesting! You are getting so close...hang in there. :hug99:

 

CONGRATS!!! Sounds like things are going well...I agree rest up, save your energy for labor/delivery..

 

Glad to hear that it's going well. I know you are miserable right now, but trust me when your babies come home with you it'll all be worth the misery. xoxoxoo

hang in there girl you can do it.

 

I know it's rough... with both my pgs I got those painful ctx towards the end. The stinky part is that even if you work through them hoping to bring on labor it might not happen. I did that with my dd for four days before I actually started labor... I just pushed myself through them hoping to really bring it on... The end result was 4 exhausting days of painful ctx, at least 6-10 every hour. And by the time my real labor started I was already exhausted. Do what you can do, but don't wear yourself out before your marathon starts... KWIM??!! At this stage in the game, since you technically don't want labor to start quite this early you should take it easy when they are exhausting you... And if it's for real, then lying down won't stop them...
