How's everyone doing? I'm so much better. Sleeping sucks and I've still got heartburn but haven't had any "real" contractions for weeks. Just some BH now and then.
The baby's room is almost ready and thanks to a little shower my family gave me and a few big shopping trips with my mom, her closet is stuffed with cute clothes too.

I've got 39 days or less. I forget how far along everyone else is. I just remember we all seemed to get knocked up within a 4 week timeframe Very Happy

My c/s is scheduled for 3/26. That gives me exactly 45 days to go. Surprised
I think everything is going really well. I am surprisingly still really comfortable. I'm not all swollen like I was with the boys, very mild and rare hip aches, mild heartburn,... really everything is going SO well. Very Happy I've gained 17 pounds.

I've been having a lot of BH though. I never had them with the boys. And there have been a few occassions that I think I'm having real contractions. It is a weird experience for me.

We need a carseat and something for the baby to sleep in. I think we are going to take care of those things this weekend.

I am due 4/16 so I am almost 31 weeks. Suddenly I feel so.... pregnant. And big. And varicose veiny. And out of breath when climbing the stairs, lol. I think most of my exhaustion stems from Kate the tornado who climbs furniture and pulls things off shelves constantly. Confused

I just got the carseat and ordered a new double stroller this week. I got a cute boy outfit for coming home from the hospital but haven't found a girl one I like. I always get two and leave the tags on, then return the unused outfit! I don't know how fat I am right now but as of 3 weeks ago I had gained 13 lbs.

Names at this point (since I have changed my mind 102930 times) are Carter or Paige.

I'm still here. I'm 27 weeks now and I am measuring full term pretty much. My dr took me off work two weeks ago because I was having contrax from being on my feet and a lot of rib and back pain. A lot of the pain has gone away since I am resting instead of on my feet. The dr said the babies are huge. That's probably why I am so big already, even for having twins. So I'm pretty much just hanging out, haven't done much yet to prepare, just trying to keep the babies in for longer. We have picked our names. Jeremy Adam for the boy, and Melanie Erin for the girl.

I am 38 weeks, and my c-section is scheduled for next Saturday at 9 AM, unless I go into labor before then. The baby has been measuring well over 40 weeks for the past few doctor's visits, so he's going to be a big one, I think. I've been on bedrest since the middle of January for pre-term labor, so I'm bored and so ready to be done with this. I've been to Labor and Delivery three times now....for kidney stones, pre-term labor, and some unknown reason the last time where they thought I had something wrong with my liver or gallbladder and couldn't find anything. I don't think I have anything left to do around here besides wash the boppy, pack my bag for the hospital, and pack the boys' bags for their grandparents house. I'm just sitting here waiting. His name will be Connor Joseph.
