News for the blog…!! I have been going in twice a week for non-stress test on the babies. For those of you who do not know what that is they hook up your belly to a heart monitor to monitor the babies heart rates and moments. Pretty cool stuff, except my two little peanuts are very restless. Either they have the hiccups or they move around so much we lose the heartbeats. My first appointment for this was last week Tuesday. The nurse was unable to find baby A’s heart rate so we ran over to the ultrasound machine to pin point the exact location. We also took note that yes baby B was still breach. Having one of the babies breach will up my chance for a C-section, which I would rather not have. So I went in again yesterday for another non-stress test and another ultrasound to check the babies fluid levels. When I was explaining to the ultrasound tech that baby B the last time was breach she looked at me and said "no its not.” She then turned the monitor so I was able to see both babies head down. Holy cow how and when did that happen.!! I was thrilled. So hopefully with gravity and lack of space they will stay put. My husband on the other hand was not so thrilled (sorry honey). He is hoping for the C-section just so it will be easy access for them to just tie my tubes and he can be free of the harmless snip job he will have to encounter. It’s kind of a joke around here to see who is going to win.
Our wonderful neighbors the Sherman’s threw us a shower this past Saturday. Thanks April for putting that together. When you haven’t had a little one in almost five years it’s amazing how much stuff you forget that you need. It was so nice to hang with the ladies, talk, eat and yes have some wine. (I think that is what turned baby B head down.! Ha) What a great day.
My co-workers in Whitefish Bay also threw me a shower. I have enough diapers now to last us for a very long time. I am so grateful to have such great friends and family!! Thank you everyone.
Oh..One other thing my group of OB Dr’s that I see, I am starting to get a little hormonal with. They are claiming that they won’t induce me until I hit 39 weeks. Okay what the heck (@#%). Telling this to a women pregnant with twins is not going to put her in a very good mood. Both my boys had to be induced and I was well past my due date. I give my cervix no hope on giving way anytime sooner. So I guess I’m in it for the long haul. As long as they are healthy that’s all that matters.

Great update, and great to hear that the twins are doing so wonderfully! See, wine really does do a body (or baby) good! :)
