27 weeks!

I'm 27 weeks!

The boys are the size of rutabaga's!

They really do pick some strange produce to compare a baby to. 

My weight is holding steady. My appetite has decreased a bit since I am running out of room and my stomach is being squished. 

I have to pee once a hour during the day and am up every couple of hours at night. 

I am getting a little more uncomfortable, simple things are becoming difficult and I get out of breath easily. 

I am still trying to take it easy to help keep these babies cooking. 




Jon, has been absolutely, fantastically wonderful. He is always helping me up, getting me things and keeping me fed.  I basically come home from work and sit on the couch until I go to bed. Yep, he is pretty wonderful. Hopefully he isn't getting too burned out on my constant requests. 

I am coming to the end of my 2nd trimester and next week start the 3rd!

I feel like time is really starting to fly by and these boys could be here anytime between 5-8 weeks! 

I guess we better start getting ready. 

We have bought both cribs, but only have one set up for now. We plan to have them share a crib for the first 3-4 months, but I would feel better having both cribs put together in case they don't like sharing. 

 When we moved here last September, it was a very quick move and things were kinda thrown together. Well, now we are paying for that as we try to make room for 2 babies. We are in the process of a huge house reorganization.  Which includes the garage, our storage area, our room and the boys room. Its a big project and Jon has been wonderful in trying to organize/purge everything.  I hope to have it done in the next week or two. 

Then we can start putting all of the baby stuff (which is quickly adding up) in their room.

We had our specialist appointment today. 

Weston (Baby A) is 2 lbs 1 oz

Arthor (Baby B) is 1 lb 10 oz

Since Arthor is measuring about 2 weeks behind, I expressed some concern if his lungs would be mature enough when it comes time for induction day. 

The Dr explained that since Arthor is under stress (due to his size and unequal placenta sharing) his body is quickly preparing itself to be ready in time. 

He gave the analogy that his bags are packed in anticipation of a sudden trip. 

Weston, on the other hand, is not as packed because he thinks he has plenty of time to get ready. 

So we will continue monitoring the babies to make sure they are both healthy and thriving.
