Almost there! Can't do much and contractions aren't pleasant, but I'm hangin' in there. They're getting really heavy. Sleep is my very best friend. Next appointment is on the 10th. Trusting the unknown to the God I know.

The appointment on the 24th went well! Baby A's heart rate is 155 and Baby B's is 142. We saw baby A's mouth & tongue moving on the ultrasound. It was as if the little one was trying to talk to us! It is also amazing getting to know their personalities now. A's my active one and B is usually pretty chill. They're usually most active in the evenings, starting around 8pm till Ian gets home. And, just like their Father, they enjoy sleeping in in the morning. I wonder how different things will be when they arrive. I'm so excited to meet them!!!
Ian and I want to have the twins c-section. We talked with Doctor Z about scheduling it and he said that would only be necessary if we reach 38 weeks (not likely). Otherwise, he will wait for me to go into labor anytime after 34 weeks and then take them c-section. The timing is all up to the Lord and the twins. Thankfully, bedrest hasn't been mentioned yet!! I'm still able to be on my feet for a while & get around, but I tire easily. I'm trying to heed advice and take advantage of as much sleep as possible. However, even when I do, it's broken sleep because I have to shift from side to side quite often due the pain in my hips. I'm up for a couple of hours and then nap for a couple hours. My mother-in-law blessed me with the gift of a housekeeper every 2 weeks. I can't imagine the piggy pen we'd live in without her help.
Please pray that I will continue to take it easy, so as not to go into preterm labor. We want them in there as long as possible. Thank you for your prayerful support! We 4 are doing very well! Won't be long now :)
