1 Month Old

I can not believe that the girls are a month old now. It's gone by so fast! It's amazing to see how much they have progressed. They are more alert and are getting to really starting to show their true personalities. I get so happy sometimes I could just explode! It is just truly amazing.

***Update***

H1 rolled over today! It was so funny. H2 keeps trying but she hasn't gotten there quite yet.

37 Weeks Pregnant and 1 Day To Go!!!

I have been busy the past few days trying to get things a little more ready for the girls. I got a bit far but didn't do as much as I would have liked to have. My body, at this point, will only allow me to do so much. I just repacked my bag, packed some stuff for the girls. and am making sure the camera and video camera are charged.



I go in tomorrow for my c-section and it really hasn't sunk in yet. I have a good feeling that in the morning I will be scared half to death and super excited!



I am planning on bringing the computer with me to the hospital to email and post photos. It may not be the same day...or even the day after but I promise I will get them to you as soon as I can.



Talk to you soon,

Sheena

37 Weeks Pregnant and 2 Days To Go!

AHH!

I can't believe it's coming so fast. I feel like I'm about to go into panic mode to get things done. I should probably get off the computer now and go do something of use. ::hehe::

37 Weeks Pregnant - 9 Days To Go!

This is officially my last full week of pregnancy. The girls will be here in 9 days unless something drastic happens. Even though I have been dilating and having a few contractions....they have all stopped and I have had no change in nearly 2 weeks. The girls are gaining weight really well...maybe a little too well. ::hehe::

I am scheduled for a c-section next Tuesday (June 5th) at 38 weeks and 2 days.

I have one more NST and regular OB appointment on Wednesday and my last ultrasound to check the girls weights on Friday. The specialist believes that the girls will weigh about 6 1/2 lbs a piece by the appointment on Friday! They didn't expect them to be 5lbs much less due to my size and them being twins. They are doing so well!!! Then, the next Tuesday...they'll be here. I can't believe it. It's coming so fast. It doesn't seem as though I have been pregnant that long.

35 Weeks and 5 Days Pregnant

I was to apologize in advance for not updating my page once things start getting heavy with my labor and after the girls are born. I already have a darn good feeling that I will probably be a good bit busier than I am now.

I am one more step closer to having my girls. Yesterday I officially passed my mucus plug which is a "collection of mucus, often tinged with blood, that blocks the cervix during pregnancy; known as the "bloody show" when discharged prior to labor." *woo hoo*

As of yesterday I was:
70% effaced - The thinning (sometimes called ripening) of the cervix in preparation for delivery. During effacement, the cervix goes from more than an inch thick to paper thin,
2 1/2 cm dilated - The opening of the cervix during labor.
-2 station - A term used to describe the location of a baby's presenting part (usually the top of the head) relative to the mother's pelvic bones during pregnancy and labor; ranges from -5 when the presenting part is at the inlet of the maternal pelvis to +5 when it is at the outlet (and delivery is imminent).
