WEEK 30
This is a little teaser of whats to come as she is still working on finalizing my proofs. I'm so excited to see the final product.
Well we made it to week 30 and as usual it's been quite a week. Mr. Dax and Miss Blake love to keep us on our toes. Richard actually started telling them their revised bed time story that goes a little like this. "Once upon a time there was a mommy and daddy that were so excited because they were having twins, a boy and a girl. Their mommy loved them so much that she would stay in bed all day long just so they would stay put and grow. These two twins loved to scare their mommy and daddy and loved to send them to labor and delivery. All their mommy and daddy wanted for them was to be healthy, happy, and to stay inside their mommy just a little longer."
So why would he start reading his revised bed time story? It's because I had began bleeding that night; however we were watching it to see if it would stop which it did not. After calling the nurse the following morning we were sent to L and D for monitoring. At L and D we learned that I was actually having contractions. Fours hours later, a missed baby shower, a shot, and a prescription we were sent home to lay. The drugs are taken every 6 hours on the dot so I've set my alarm to remind me. 5:05pm, 11:05pm, 5:05am and so forth. Yes these two little ones really want to meet us. My dear friends stopped by after the shower and brought all the gifts, showed me the pictures, and told me all about it. (This was a double shower with Meredith) As usual the babies got so many cute clothes and books to start their library. I'm so thankful for the wonderful friends that I have, people traveled from Texas and even Chicago for our shower. I was really sad that B and D decided to stir things up.
Drama at the Doc:
Monday I went back for my stress test and this was seriously the highlight of bed rest that day. I was in the waiting room and couple sitting across from me caught my attention because they were fighting. You have to remember there was no volume control or any kind of concern for those around. I had my phone out from the beginning playing what game?!?! Yes Words With Friends. Since they caught my attention I noticed something on the husbands neck. At first I thought it was a huge hickey, then I noticed it was lips. She had bright red lipstick on and it was Valentine's day so I assumed she had kissed him earlier. I was actually wrong because this was a tattoo of red lips on his neck. Once this was discovered I just knew I needed a picture of this to send to Richard. (Keep in mind the prior visit we watched a couple make out for an hour while waiting to be seen.) Next thing I know they have left the building and decided to come back in the waiting room to stir up a fight with an innocent couple stating they were discriminating against them. As soon as they left I told the couple that they should have been chewing me out because I was the one who discriminated against them by taking the picture. This was truly my entertainment for the day. After telling the nurses who were dying laughing they told me they were not surprised and that they get all walks of life. I must admit after the make out session we witnessed I changed all of my apts back to the early ones because even the bed is better than watching that for an hour while you wait.
The Waddle:
Both babies have gained weight and are doing great. They are kicking up a storm and Blake is still wedged in between my pelvic bone very very low. Last week I mentioned the inner thigh aches that you get after a good work out. This ache really likes to creep up in the mornings after getting out of bed; therefor I have officially mastered the waddle as a result and I'm sure it is only going to continue as she grows and stays lodged in my pelvic area.
As always we thank you for your kind words, thoughts, and prayers. Our goal is still 32 weeks and for these little ones to stay healthy, grow, and arrive safely.
The Hen and The Bull
How B and D are growing:
Your baby's about 15.7 inches long now, and she weighs
amniotic fluid surrounds her, but that volume will decrease as
she gets bigger and takes up more room in your uterus. Her
eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even
after she's born, she'll keep her eyes closed for a good part
of the day. When she does open them, she'll respond to
changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means
she can only make out objects a few inches from her face.
(Normal adult vision is 20/20.)
