34 + weeks...

I am just passed 34 weeks - I cannot believe we have made it this far - God sure has blessed us! My appointment was yesterday and I met with the new doctor on staff - she is super nice. The ultrasound went good - got to see our boys... one had the hiccups so that was really cute to see on the screen.. him bouncing around... we also saw that they are both practicing breathing and we got to see their faces! They estimate their weights to be just shy of 6 pounds each!

It was a long appointment - lots to discuss. Baby A is still breech so the likelyhood of him turning are getting very slim so it looks like I will be scheduling a c-section. I have all the paperwork filled out for the procedure but I need to meet with my doctor that I have been seeing throughout this whole pregnancy next week to discuss a date. Since I am on medication for possible cholestasis.. they might have me deliver at 37 weeks which would bring me to the last week in September... otherwise it looks like October 2 might be the day. I will admit that I am VERY nervous for the c-section... with all the risks that go along with it... bleeding too much (transfusion) ... infection... etc... it really does make me a bit scared... but I know it is routine and I believe that God has put me in good hands!

I felt bad for Mike... my doctor had told me that anyone that is going to be helping us with these babies needs to get a flu shot so there we are in the doctors office signing papers to get the shot.. Mike's reaction "we are getting it now?" what a trooper - he took the shot and I did too. Now my mom needs to get one also because she will be staying with us for a good amount of time... and poor Brev.. he will not like getting this done at his appointment!!

All-in-all.... we are just getting excited and nervous as the end of this pregnancy is fast approaching... we are so excited to meet these little ones and nervous that everything will be okay with the whole procedure... lots to take in. So we just ask for your prayers that all will go well and smooth - prayers for the doctors and nurses and that we all come home strong and healthy!

Here is a picture that I took of myself today to show how BIG I am getting... I can't even put that shirt on that I had in the other pictures.. totally grew out of that!!

Thanks for reading!!
