3lb babies so far!

Hello,

i really am trying to update this more often it just isn't working out that way. The summer has been so busy and has flew by!

We did have a Dr appointment on Tuesday with an ultrasound. Babies are doing great. Both still breach and on opposite sides. Rylee is still on my right, and Wyatt is still on my left. They seem to like it there and have not moved positions yet. Dr did say something about talking them into flipping over, so I ask if it was really that big of a deal knowing we will be delivering by c-section. He said no not really, just more ideal to have them head down. Said there are a few more steps in getting them out sometimes if they are breach. But not a big deal. So i guess if they are happy dancing on my bladder that is what they can do!

Ultrasound also showed that they are both getting hair! Kyler had quite a bit of hair for a preemie so i figure if these babies cook a little longer they might have a head full of hair. Rylee says bring on the hair bows! Both are also estimated to be around 3lbs each. Which is amazing since Kyler was only 2lbs 8 oz at birth. Sheldon likes to point out thought that the ultrasound we had of Kyler just hours before he was born they said he was over 3 lbs also? So who really knows? They are right at in the 50th percentile which is great. Dr said if we continue doing this well and make it to 37-38 weeks we should have a couple 7 lb babies! WOW! Don't get me wrong i would love to have some big healthy babies... just don't know where i am going to store 14lbs of baby in this belly!!! It already feels maxed out!

My blood pressure are still going awesome and weight gain (in my book) is good for what i have been eating! Opps! Sweets? You mean with twice the amount of babies i can't eat twice the amount of chocolate? I feel like i eat a lot but really i don't. I eat often, but just eat like a bird. I just don't have the stomach capacity i use to... and the heartburn, oh the heartburn!

So all in all the dr was good.

I did have two awesome friends throw me a baby shower last weekend also. It was fun having a baby shower BEFORE i had a baby this time! I got lots of great gifts and think i should be set now. Just waiting around for babies. I hope to get some pictures on soon!

Well better get back to business. Hope to be back to post sooner next time.
