    Check up today.

     Thought I would post an update.  I had a check up today.  My cervix (which seems to be all they care about) LOL  is 3.4 cm.  Still a good measurement.  Under 2.5 is when they worry.  Babies were looking good.  Baby A measured a week behind Baby B this week.  Before they measured the same, right on schedule, for all the other visits.  I had to wonder if it was the angle she's at.  They are both lying sideways mostly except Baby A has her feet in my pelvis.  NOT COMFORTABLE!!!  Especially when she kicks my bladder.  I'm afraid I might wet myself one of these times.  Neither is head down!  Ugh.  

    We did a Fetal Fibronectin test today to see if my body is preparing for labor.  I'm still contracting every 20-25 mins. all day long which is a bit of a concern.  They are very strong and uncomfortable at night.  My OB gave me 2 meds to try to see if they will calm down.  I'm sending DH to go pick them up for me.  

    My BP was back in the normal range which is a HUGE relief.  It was spiking last weeked but now is back around 125/80.  I made a lot of dietary changes and I wonder if that is helping?  I can't stand meat much but I will eat egg salad so we're making that a lot for extra protein.  Plus I upped my Omega-3 capsules and added Vitamins E and D.   

    Physically I am wiped.  I don't know how anyone could be working at this point with twins.  I spent 1 hour at Target today and thought I was going to die.  My back gets soooooo sore.  I've slowed way down.  I don't plan to do more than 1 thing a day.  So if I have an appt. or a gathering with family, that's all I do.  The rest of the day I try to stay off my feet. 

    Hope the rest of you are doing great.

    I'm so glad that everything is going well. I couldn't imagine having 2 in there kicking as much as my 1 does. I give you tons of credit!
