34 Week Appointment

I went for my 34 week appointment today. First, we had an ultrasound & the babies were measuring 5 lbs 1 oz and 5 lbs 4 oz. They both have huge heads & both have hair. The amniotic fluid levels look good & the heartrates were 144 and 147. The best news is that both babies are vertex, which means we get to go for a vaginal birth, which is what I am hoping for. YAY!

I got my cervix checked. I'm now dilated to 2 cm, and baby A is engaged. Things have been feeling weird lately, so I guess that is why. Because I'm 34 weeks, I am not on bedrest or anything, but the doctor doesn't want me out shopping or out of the house for long bouts. He is thinking/hoping I will make it to my next appointment, but not so sure about the next one. He'd love it if I could make it that long, but he is also very pleased that I am in the safe zone now. He did give me instructions to tell labor & delivery to call him directly if I go into labor, as he really wants to be there for the delivery. That kind of makes me think he's going on vacation or something. Well, I will certainly tell them that if it comes to it, I guess. I'm on weekly appts at this point.

I've set some mini goals for myself to help the time go along.

Goal #1- make it to October. This should be easy, seeing as that is tomorrow!
Goal #2- make it past next Tuesday, as I have a hair appointment scheduled
Goal #3- make it to 36 weeks

Since 36 weeks is term for twins, anything past that is just icing on the cake.
Sooo, anyday now, it could happen. We'll see!
