Update on the twins

The twins are doing great every appointment shows that they are healthy in every way and growing big and strong. At my last perinatologist appointment which was on March 30th it showed that Madison was vertex (head down) and weighed 3 lbs 3 oz. Jacob was breech (butt first) and weighed 2 lbs 15 oz. It is good that they are similar in size because sometimes that isn't the case with twins. I just got an email from baby center the other day about the 29 week of pregnancy and it said the babies should weigh around 2.5 pounds. They are both bigger than that :)! Other good news is that the perinatologist said that my cervical length is still normal and this is the measure that is really important and could predict preterm labor. I was relived after my OB telling me the week before that my cervix was 50% effaced (thinned out).

Now for me on the other hand I am getting huge as you can see in the picture. At my OB appointment on Tuesday, April 7th, my uterus was measuring 42 weeks. Which means if I was pregnant with one baby I wold be measuring two weeks over due and I am only 29 weeks pregnant. Both doctors say to take it easy and stay off my feet as much as possible. I am feeling so big, tired and uncomfortable. It is going to be a long 6-8 weeks but I still am soooooo excited about the twins and their upcoming arrival.

Mike has been working hard in their nursery. I will post pictures as soon as it is more put together.
