So I am now 35 weeks! Yesterday, we had what will likely be our last ultrasound. Right now, the girls are both head down (finally!), which is very good news. They're also getting SO big. Baby on the right (they keep switching positions so the A and B gets confusing - I always think of the right baby as Elizabeth) is 5 lbs and 13 oz! Baby on the left (Madeline) is 6 pounds and 2 ounces! At this rate, they're both going to be bigger than I was at birth! I don't think they'll make Gary's birth weight though! (If they do, I'm in trouble - Gary was over 8 pounds!)
So, if the estimated weights are correct, just about everybody is under in our poll! I've locked the game at this point, so no trying to update your answers!
I have the full timeline, plus the 33 week pictures in the Flickr Album
Things are going pretty well. My diabetes is under control with diet, but now my blood pressure is getting a bit high. It's not pre-eclampsia, fortunately, and not high enough to need to do anything yet, but if it gets much higher than it is right now, and they'll want to deliver the girls right away! We're shooting for after Thanksgiving at this point - probably that next Monday. Despite our plans, the girls could arrive at any time, so we're spending these next few weeks getting everything ready - well, Gary is doing the work, I'm sitting on the couch to keep my blood pressure down!
Almost there...
