Here's an update on the gals-So my doctor appt was not very exciting the other day. I found out I measure 42 weeks big (if I was having only one baby) and have gained a total of 27 pounds. For most of the pregnancy the babies have been breech. The good news is one baby has turned, but I was reassured that she could turn again. We were told to wait a bit longer to see what to do next. My growth ultrasound is next Friday, the 3rd. Here we will find out how big they are, and their positions. From this ultrasound, I will have an appt. on the 8th, and I think there will be some final decisions on dates of either induction or c-section. It still looks as though I will make it to Christmas break at school, and would be scheduling (if I have to at all) a c-section the last week of December sometime. She said that we might schedule it, just to have the time allotted for us, because we can always cancel it. We are all really hoping, doc included, that I just go into labor naturally at 37 weeks...this is considered full term and the babies would be less likely to be in NICU and be able to go home with us.
Needless to say, the doctor ordered double desserts for me this holiday season.
So glad to hear that everything is going as planned. You look amazing! I'm so excited for you and your family. I think of you often and pray for the health of you and your newest girlies. Much love to you, Jess.
