31 week belly shot

 

 After weeks of asking my doctor for a proper U/S we got one today!!  I am so utterly shocked at how good the babies are growing!! Here are the stats.
Baby A is 4# 8oz and is measuring at 32w4d
Baby B is 4# 10oz and is measuring at 32w6d
Baby C is 4# 5 oz and is measuring at 32w2d
If you are adding, I am at 31w 3d and carrying 13#7oz of babies!!  WOW No wonder my body wants to go in to labor.
I am also feeling a lot better about having a c-section with this pregnancy. After looking at the U/S today two of the babies are butt first breech and NO way could I deliver them vaginal!! I struggled a lot with the fact that I had to have a c-section. I almost felt cheated in a way. This will be the first c-section for me. I am still a little scared about the surgery part of it but I am sure that they will be able to give me something to relax during the c-section.

The count down has officially started!! It is so hard to believe that this journey is just about over. On Friday I come off the meds that I am on and the Doctor thinks that we will start contracting and then he will just decided to take the babies. So I could be delivering as soon as Saturday (maybe). After todays U/S the doctor isn’t worried about their weights, neither am I, and he thinks that they will do just fine in the NICU. I am crossing my fingers for them.

I will update ASAP if anything happens. Wish us luck, its almost time.
