28 Weeks!




Mommy Update:

I am measuring 39 weeks (which is full term belly size for single baby)! No wonder I am hurting so much! Also, I am anemic even with my iron supplements! I guess babies are taking all the good stuff. No wonder I am soooo tired! Finally, I failed the 1 hour gestational diabetes glucose test! What does that mean? Well, in the next week or so I have t go to the lab at 8:30am fasting and drink the yuckiest pure sugar drink. Then I have to have my blood drawn at 8:30, 9:30, 10:30 and 11:30 while waiting in the office. BORING! If I pass this test I do not have gestational diabetes. If I fail...I do! = (

Daddy Update:

Jeff is working his tail off around the house trying to get ready for the babies.

Birth Update:

We are scheduled for a c-section on Tuesday, December 2. We arrive at 9:30 and go in to retrieve little sweeties at 11:30am! OMGoodness!




Baby Update:

Here is a picture of how 28 week fraternal twins look in utero. But, ours are stacked...baby boy is on top and baby girl is on bottom. Perinatologist appointment went GREAT! The babies are starting to get fat! Yay! Baby girl is getting a little booty and baby boy has long legs that he likes to put up over his head. Also, Dr. showed us that they actually have some hair that you could see on the sono! Doctor told us they were "some good-lookin babies!"
