More appointment updates

Had my U/S yesterday and appointment with Dr today. Babies are 4lbs 5oz and 4 lbs 4oz. At that size I could have 6lb twins. He is head down and She is a little head down, but more sideways like this (-- Little stinker better be turning head down. That is why I look so lopsided. My left side is definitely bigger. My cervix is still long, so the contractions I have been having have done nothing. The Dr said best pregnancy so far with twins. I am so miserable though. Muscle, ligament, back, leg, rib, skin, butt, and hip pain. Did I forget anything? I feel guilty, but sometimes I wish they would just come now. Four weeks sounds forever away! It doesn't help that I keep thinking they will be born in Spring and then when it actually starts to feel like spring, we wake up to snow. Dr. said today that he is sure I will go to term. As I was leaving the office, I thought what does that mean? Is 37 weeks term? Is 40 weeks Full term? Why do I think of these things after I leave, not while I am sitting there with him. I am sure he won't let me go to 40 weeks. Will he?

When I was close to popping, I went to one appt and the dr said that I wasn't as dilated as he thought I'd be, so it would be a little longer. I was so disappointed and felt sooo guilty about it that I broke down and sobbed in the office. Nice scene! At least you didn't bawl in front of your doc. :) Hang in there. I'm glad the babies are doing well!

There are quite a few people in the valley who are set up to do massages on pregnant women. It worked wonders for me along with the chiropractor when I was hurting so bad I wanted to die! 37 is Term-- he won't let you go past that... unless you want to probably... See you tomorrow!
