I had a doctor appointment yesterday and was so excited to see our babies again after another long 4-week span. They looked great and were kicking me as they got measured!
Here are their stats:
Baby A-1lb 11oz, 153bpm
Baby B-1lb 14oz, 148bpm
The crazy thing about their size is that my weekly BabyCenter email says a singleton should be about 1.5lbs at 25 weeks and these not-so-little twins are both bigger?! Yikes!
The good thing was they were both head down. Of course there is plenty of time for them to move again (the ultrasound tech also said plenty of fluid for each baby too so lots of space), but it makes me hopeful they know this is the way out for later :) Baby A was head down, spine along my left side and Baby B was head down, spine along my right side. They are head to head facing each other conspiring about how much punching my cervix can take. Buggers.
Here is a crappy selfie I took the other night a few days after Jay took a belly pic for me that I posted on Facebook and quickly realized doesn't do any justice for my giganticness. I wore this ensemble for two days in a row and even slept in it. Didn't leave the house but still - I'm at THAT stage. Stretch pants and tank tops are my uniform.
My next appointment is three weeks from yesterday on February 28th - the same day we close on our house (post on that coming soon!)
