I was 36 weeks on Saturday...
Peri appointment last week went great!
July 21, 2008
I don't think I actually posted and update about my peri appointment last Friday so here it goes...
Both of the girls look great. Estimated weights are about 5.5 lbs each! The doctor actually called them chubby! We could see lots of hair on Madison... she is also breech... again. He said it's very unlikely that she will move at this point so it looks like a c-section for me. I see my OB on Thursday so I am sure we will set a date for the birth (If I don't go into labor on my own before then) I'm just curious to see how long she will insist on making me wait! The peri said most docs won't let you go more than 38 weeks w/ twins... but we'll see what my doc says... it seems everyone has differant opinions and information.
So now it's just a waiting game... every day I wonder if today will be the day. It looks like these girls just aren't ready to come out. No new action. My contractions do seem to be getting stonger.. some waking me at night... but they still are happening regularly.
Please send some labor dust my way... I am ready to meet my girls!

That is great news Sam. I am starting to get very uncomfortable..my hips are starting to get very stiff and i can not sleep at night..i am up from about 4 am until 10 am on the couch because the bed is just so uncomfortable..i have the preggo pillow and everything..with in the last month that the girls have had this growth spurt i have really been feeling really uncomfortable..and my stomach is VERy heavy..maybe it is because i am so small and i am carrying an extra load..but anyways i know how you feel..i just want to hold the girls already...but know that they need to stay in as long as possible..
I hope all goes well please give me lots of details as i am haiving a c section also..take care and i am sure you will have two healthy girls..
