35 Weeks!

Can you believe that we are still in mommy's belly?!? I know she is having a hard time believing it. Dad keeps joking that we will be in there for three more weeks, but we don't think mom finds that very funny. We also want to apologize to all of you who voted for 33 or 34 weeks...sorry, you lost!

We made it all the way to 35 weeks, and mom was officially discharged from her terbutaline pump today (that is the medication that helps control the pre-term contractions). She wore her monitor for the last time this morning and only had one contraction in an hour which is great. For one more week she will take the oral form of terbutaline, but then she is done with all medication. Yeah!!!

Tomorrow mom gets to go to the doctor for an ultrasound and non-stress test. Sounds like fun! We actually will get to find out our approximate weights which is always exciting, and I'm sure they'll take pictures. You'll have to check back tomorrow because knowing mom she'll make sure to post them so that everyone can see us.

Try this again, I have tried to post a comment here, now for the third time, not sure why it is not working...Anyway, guess not smart enough to post a comment, or maybe too tired. Who would have thought you would be here at 35 weeks back in Aug, amaizing. Congratulations on getting off more meds, are you starting to feel like a new woman? Have fun with the anticipation of your new little ones, they will be here soon. Good luck!
