Now is when I'm especially glad that we live so close to the hospital! I get to go 2x a week now - once a week for my normal check-up with the doctor, and once a week for a non-stress test. The doctor wants me to have the NST weekly in between visits to him just to keep an eye on the babies as we near the end and they run out of room to move around in there - it'll be harder for me to tell if they are as active as they should be.
The boys appear to be doing well - we're at 34 weeks, which is great! Let's hope for at least two more weeks before they make an appearence. It's hard to believe that probably sometime within the next four weeks we'll be holding our little babies! I'm not terribly nervous about labor and delivery yet, maybe I just haven't thought about it enough...
Baby B is now head down again. Phew! His body is actually somewhat crosswise, but once Baby A is out he'll probably drop into place better. Or so the doctor says...
I did get the H1N1 vaccine today - I had been on the fence about it, but decided to go for it. Thankfully, my doctor's office had two doses left so it wasn't a big hassle to get it. Now, what to do with two new little babies born in the middle of a flu pandemic?? This will be interesting.
We are down to odds and ends with our remodeling. Hopefully we can pretty much wrap things up this week and maybe have a little time to relax before our lives change forever. :)
