2 more weeks!!

This week has been a crazy week! So many things going on with the planning and scheduling and double checking. But, here is the low down on the boys! Early this morning we had a NST scheduled, usually these things are quick and easy type things. They quickly found Cool J's heartbeat, but leave it to Spazoid to make things harder than usual! They could not find his heartbeat! If they did it was really faint and hard to read, or if they got a really good reading of his heart he would then move. They had to start finding where he was all over again! So, essentially this reading took longer than usual! Both boys hearts are still going strong!

The second appointment was the ultrasound. Lets just say that the ultrasound was confusing as well! There was so much baby in my belly that they had a hard time trying to figure out what foot or arm goes to who! hahaha Both boys are head down, which IS STILL AMAZING! Also, both boys are weighing at 5 1/2 lbs. Which also, for twins is great for being twins! Usually they rank on the smaller scale. This is a huge blessing because honestly I don't think we will be able to handle small babies. Being this size there is a small chance that they will be in the NICU, and if they were it would be only for a little while. Possibly for something that can easily be fixed. We couldn't get a cute picture of Cool J, being that he is so low. Somehow Spazoid was cooperating and did yet another "glam" shot. Also, they still are not afraid of reminding us that they are boys but, I will spare you the ultrasound of those haha!

Also, if you want to see the dividing line between the two boys here's a pretty cool video of what it looks like.

Spazoid, showing us that he does actually have a brain hehe

Both are head down, so basically you are seeing their bellies with their heartbeats, Spazoids hand and the wispy thing that is on the top right is the dividing line that separates the two.

My third appointment was with my dietitian. My blood sugar has been so good that I can now poke my fingers twice a day instead of four! My fingers were starting to get sore from all the poking! The dietitian also said that I had a mild case of gestational diabetes and most likely will not have diabetes after I gave birth. Thank goodness because this diabetes stuff is no joke! She also expects me to snap back really quick, compared to other twin moms! My weight gain for this pregnancy is right on target!

My fourth appointment was with my actual doctor. They said that I am all good to go with a vaginal delivery and that they are not going to flip at all because there is no room left to! haha Yes, they are fatties! They also said that they are allowed to come any time! Like literally they can come right now and they will be okay! This makes me so nervous! Its actually shocking to me that we made it this far! 

The  reason that this was not posted yesterday was because the doctor called me and told me that my blood pressure was a concern. She told me to head over to labor and delivery at Good Samaritan just to be monitored for a longer period for preeclampsia. Preeclampsia is where my blood pressure goes way too high and basically a lot can go wrong. I'll save you from the list of things that could go wrong. Needless to say we are still going strong and just waiting on the boys to decide what day will be their birthday!
