Week #28 Update!

There has been a lot going on these past few weeks! We had two baby showers to attend to. One in Cedar City and the other in Las Vegas. We are so glad and very thankful that all of our loved ones came and celebrated with us! We are so glad that our boys are already loved before they even come to earth. Now, we are getting ready to move into a two bedroom apartment. Just across the parking lot from where we live now. It is so nice and so much room! Other than that there's really nothing new that's going on with Tyler and me. 

The boys however, are doing great! Both boys are still measuring ahead of schedule at 29 weeks and 4 days. Which again, for these boys is a great thing! Their heads however are measuring at 31 weeks!! I about died when I saw that measurement! Still kinda am! 

Cool J

Cool J was the only one that we can get a profile picture from. Right now he is still in the breech position. Which means that Spazoid is head down. The doctors said that I will end up having a C-section because these boys are most likely not able to flip with them being fatties. Basically it will have to be a "hail mary" to have them flip on their own. Basically there's not a lot of room for them to flip. I am still hopeful though, being that I have pulled a few "hail mary's" myself. But, I am still hopeful that we won't have to have a C-section. (fingers crossed)

We are still getting monitored every two weeks but, we are past the TTTS threshold. The only thing that will make these boys come now is pre-eclampsia from me or other stress induced factors by the boys. They will be monitoring the boys with a stress induced test (NST) to see if we need to give birth at whatever time. They think the boys will last a while but, its better safe than sorry. Which Tyler and I have no issue with!

Week #26 on MODI boys

Today we went in for our 26 week appointment. The boys are doing great! They are measuring ahead of schedule, which is great being that they are high risk twins! Dr. P came in to the room and basically told me that I am carrying two Mcfatties! 🤣 These boys are now measured at 27 weeks and weigh 2 lbs and 3 oz. Which is on the high scale for measuring at 27 weeks! LL Cool J is in breech position, which is making me soooo nervous, being that it is getting close to the due date! And is constantly kicking my lady parts...which hurts by the way!!! Spazoid...hes still a spaz 🙄 . With every appointment, Spazoid always makes the measuring hard. Today he decided that he didn't want his heart rate to be monitored. Spazoid would hold still for a few minutes and then would move around and make the readings inaccurate right in the  middle of it! haha! Also, I got my first flu shot at this appointment! What wonderful things moms have to go through to help their babies in the outside world. 

LL Cool J didn't want to show us his cute face so here is the top of his head! haha

This is Spazoid, all squished up in his fat glory haha!

Side note: (If any of you personally know me, I HATE needles! I hate anything and everything that has to do with needles and this pregnancy is making me hate them more! And you ask, but Breanne...didn't you want to go into the medical field? And my answer is yes, yes I do. I would rather stick someone else with the needle than me...any day!) 

Another update; I finished with my second time, one hour glucose test. Hoping that I pass this one as well and get these things done and over with and never look back! The boys absolutely love the glucose test and are the most active at that time...and for the rest of the day! It wears me out! 

Also, being that we are in our third trimester, my body temperature runs very hot. I can be in a nice temperature room and my hands will be so sweaty! Since my body temperature runs hot, I have learned that I have received a superpower. Which is that I can stand very cold temperatures! I can freeze Tyler out with the air conditioning on full blast in the car and be okay with it! haha I also can stand in the cold ocean of San Francisco and not bat an eye. In Northern California people do not go swimming in the ocean up here, unless they are wearing a whole suit, and here I am knee deep in the water loving the cold! Oh, and I also take showers on the coldest setting too and be okay with it. So I think its safe to say that with this pregnancy I gained a superpower! ahhaha!
