Baby update

A quick update from yesterday's appointment:

• Both babies are estimated to be about 4 lbs. 5 oz., both huge for twins of their age (ultrasound was done at 31 wks, 3 days).
• Cervix went from 1.7 to 1.4.
• I will be staying on the terbutaline medicine pump until 34 weeks, not 32, and I will continue to monitor contractions in conjunction with that.
• Baby A's head is still gargantuan (35 weeks big) and is resting upon my funneling cervix as if to say, "I'm ready when you are!"
• Baby B is lying sideways, just as I suspected- there was an awful lot of squirming going on across the top of my belly!
• If fFN is negative, fine. If fFN is positive, I may have to be observed in the hospital for a few days. Since the doctor did not call today and it's almost 6PM, it's probably negative.
• We are hanging in there and hoping now to make it to 34 weeks - a new goal! My doctor's son was born at 34 weeks and only had to spend 5 days in the NICU. His other son was born at 32 weeks and had to stay for 3 weeks. Either way, it's not too bad. Guess we better get that room set up, eh?
