regular ob appt and GD test wednesday. We'll see how it goes!

 

Good luck ladies! :woo: Can't wait to hear how everyone's appointments went!

 

We had our 16 week appointment today.
Two strong heartbeats!

The doctor said since I am not doing the amino.....I do not need to see the PP. He said that they would do a few extra ultra sounds at the OB office, but no need to see the specialist at this point.

 

Had my cervix check and bpp with MFM this mornig.
my cervix is back to 3 cm - YEA!!!
babies are doing good. and I even had NST but it was more nightmare. they ( babies) wasn't cooperative at all.

 

I see the Peri on Wednesday of this week for a growth check. I'm just now getting into 29 weeks.

 

I had my weekly appt with my OB and my BPP. My placenta is aging, my BP is going up, both babies passed their BPP's so I have been scheduled for induction on June 2nd at night. Both are head down but in case my OB has to do any surgery it'll be early in the morning. I have 15 days left! I will be 35 weeks...both are close to 5lbs now...

 

I had my first visit with the diabetic team yesterday. Also, and O.B. and U/S. Everything went great. Today was my first day of monitoring and I was a little high (124) 1 hour after breakfast but got really good readings the rest of the day.

The babies are doing great..except they won't get into position for me! They are still both transverse, laying opposite with their heads butting together. I am sure they are already scheming!

Baby A was measuring 3lb 9oz and heart rate was 156
Baby B was measuring 4lb 1oz and heart rate was 144

My bp was 106/71 and doc. says I look great. The girls were very active during the ultrasound and finally gave us a really good look at their faces. They showed off a bit which was nice since usually they bury their faces and refuse to let us see them.

Hope everyone else has good visits this week as well! Take care.

 

Had my OB appt. today. Both heartrates are great and in two weeks I get to start see her twice a week for NST, growth scan, ultrasound, and to get my cervix checked. I am measuring at 34 weeks!! Also went to register at the hospital and got a tour of labor and delivery...I am starting the countdown!

 

Update:

Had my peri appt. today. (I'm 29 + weeks) Everything is going well except my baby boy has dilated kidneys. I'm not too worried about it though as it is fairly common (due to the level of progesterone). My daughter had a dilated kidney when she was born and they just did a sonogram every couple months to monitor that it was going down...which it did. The Peri said it's nothing major to worry about either.

My boy is 3 lbs 6 oz and my girl is 3 lbs 1 oz and they both had heartbeats over 160. Also despite the contractions I've been having my cervix is still measuring over 4! I'm really happy about that.

My next goal is to make it to 32 weeks...then I can breath a little easier I think

Hope everybody else has good appointments.

 

Had my appointment today at the MFM office. The boys are doing great! Baby A is weighing in at 2lbs 3 ozs and Baby B is weighing in at 2lbs 4 ozs. I am 26weeks. To date I have gained 18 pounds. Kinda depressing to see the weight go up everytime I get on the scale, but it's expected. My boys both had dilated kidneys, Baby A's issue was resolved, Baby B still has some dialation in his left kidney. I was happy to make it to 24 weeks, now I am anxiously awaiting 28 weeks. Soon they will be here. I know life is going to be a rollercoaster for a while but I like to believe it will make me and the husband much stronger!!!

Much Love!

 

We had our 20 week ultrasound Tuesday!! We are having identical girls both weigh 12 ounces. I was releived to see thier little hearts and to see that they are both the same size!! Thank GOD!! Thank you for all your prayers!!

 

Had 26w ob yesterday. The nurse was about to give me a rhogam shot because apparently someone forgot to cross the plus and they thought i was RH- which im not, so that was amusing. Boys are doing great although squished, everything is lookin good so far and apparently my uterus measures 36 weeks, Yikes! Havent heard back yet on my GD test, but hoping that was ok too.
