Been a long time!!
I thought I'd drop in its been a couple of months. My little guys are doing great they are at 4.3 and 4.28 lbs as of last Wednesday and couldnt be better. Baby B flipped to vertex as of last week so if he stays put we will be looking at an induction on Jan 15th which is exactly 37 weeks...if he flips back we'll do a c-section instead but on the same day. I really couldnt have asked for a better pregnancy. It almost doesnt make sense that it was so hard to get pregnant yet I've carried these guys with basically no issues. Go figure. I've gained 31lbs so far -- I'm pretty happy with that. I was having some pretty bad bone pain and that has eased up a little but the worst has been the painful swelling in my hands and arms the last couple weeks. No protein in my urine and BP has been low the entire pregnancy so no PreE but hard to sleep and do many things because of the swelling. I literally cannot open and close my hands all the way and they are red & spotchy. I see the OB 1x a week now and go in for weekly BPPs...at 29 weeks Baby B was taking his sweet time doing his breathing movements but finally did after I was admitted to the hospital overnight but everything worked out and he's done them on que ever since. We have the nursery stocked up but no room for the second crib -- its ok we PCS soon (after Dh's Ranger school) anyway....but I fixed it up as much as I could and am all ready for them. Being up here for dh's career course I didnt have a shower but family sent lots of cash so spending all their money was fun lol!!! Sorry I havent been around much but I've been keeping up with your posts glad to hear how everyone is progressing.

I'm so glad your babies are doing well. Jan 15th is right around the corner. My EDD is Jan 21st so we will all be new moms around the same time. Glad you have gotten to have fun spending other people's money.

Hey, guys! I haven't been on here much either the past few months. I went back to Arkansas for a couple of weeks for Thanksgiving (since hubby is deployed), so it was nice to be with family. Joseph's due date is January 11 (just a mere two weeks away!), but the dr doesn't think he's going to wait. I go back to the dr on Monday, so I'll be anxious to see if I'm dilated more this week (was at 1 cm last Monday). I'll be 38 weeks this week, so I'm expecting Joseph any time in the next couple of weeks!
