Great Appointment Today!

We had our 29 week appointment today and it was probably one of the best ones we've had!

Overall, everything still looks great! Here were the highlights:

1. Sarah only gained 1lb in two weeks (AMEN)

2. Tyler switched positions again and is now head down once again! Let's pray he stays this way, but I know it's fully out of my control.

3. Mason has moved up a little higher than he was, but is still in good position. Basically, he's in a half-moon shape over my belly button with his head down and his feet facing the right side.

Today the doc said again that I'm cruising right along for a natural birth so we'll see what happens. I'm still cleared to exercise and basically do whatever I've been doing.

My belly is measuring about 38 weeks and I'm only 29 weeks, so the doctor told me to get ready to start to feel really big and that my uterus is about to "kick into extra innings"... this makes me nervous, but hey, what can I do??

Next appt. is next Wednesday the 20th for a Maternal Fetal Medicine ultrasound and hopefully we'll get some good pics that I can post. I'll also be 30 weeks at that point and officially only about 2 months left to go (or less if you ask some people who wish they'd get here sooner!)

Let's all still pray for a delivery the week of March 15th. That is my goal and my doctor's goal as well. :)

  1. Very good news, Sarah and Scott! What exactly does it mean when you're uterus is going into extra innings? :)

  2. You know... basically, your uterus is "set up" to go 40 weeks with a pregnancy and since mine is already measuring at 38 weeks because of the twins, it means that my uterus and belly will go way beyond what it's set up to do. Yikes. Luckily our bodies usually do what they need to do and I should be fine, just really really big.
