Week 37 - Here they come!

Well, we made it to the scheduled c-section date! May 16, 2008 will be their birthday!!! Everything is ready to go, and we meet at the hospital at 2pm for a 4pm c-section. The final positions are: Isaac is still head down, and Hunter is now transverse, across my body.

Welcome to the world, boys!!! We are going to love you sooo much!

Week 36

Well, this week, we got to find out the weights again! They are going to be big boys. We are predicting 6 and 7lbs, respectively. I'm so excited to meet these little guys!!!

Isaac:
5lbs, 9oz

Hunter:
6lbs, 10oz

Weeks 33-35

These weeks, starting on Week 32, we are now having weekly sonograms, however, the boys are so big that the pictures don't turn out as well. They are not checking the weights until Week 36, however, we are estimating they are 5.5 and 6.5 pounds by now!! But they are doing bio-physical profiles (BPPs) on them every week, and they are getting PERFECT scores!! We can see them breathing, and everything! Pretty cool.

I'm starting to get more and more uncomfortable. I can't walk around very much at all now, and started Braxton Hicks contractions (although I cannot feel them at all).

Week 31-32

Well, we finally have everything organized from all the showers. We are really ready! We've passed the week 32 timeline, and are anticipating what their weights will be.

Weeks 29-30

Well, I had another sonogram. Hunter is now almost 4lbs, and Isaac is almost 3 (which is exactly perfect). They are no longer concerned with the fact that their weights are different, since Isaac is exactly where he is supposed to be, and maybe a little bigger.

The babies are starting to push up into my ribs. We went to the ER, when 2 of my ribs were pushed out of place. Our favorite neighborhood chiropractors fixed one, and the other fixed itself, but both babies are starting to push on vital organs and ribs.

Also, the kicking is now starting to feel like popping. DH cannot believe how hard the kicking has become. I think they are going to be some really good soccer players!

Week 28

Well, we've now reached week 28!! Wohoo! That means the boys could come at any time now, but they would be ok if they did.

I had a doctor's appointment this week, and had my glucose test and my rhogham shot, so I'm good to go!!

We've also been checking out pediatricians.

Week 26

I'm starting to get a lot more uncomfortable this week. My sleeping is sometimes aluding me due to being uncomfortable, or just not being able to sleep. My belly button has also finally popped out.

This week, we had doctor appointments, and found out the weights are staring to get a little difference in them. Isaac is at 1 lb, 15 oz, and Hunter is at 2 lb, 5 oz. Doctors don't want them over 20% difference. However, the good news is that Isaac is not small, but Hunter is just big for his age. Isaac is still doing well, but they will monitor me closely.
