Week 24


We made it to the big 24! I wasn't sure why exactly this was a big week, but we went to the Dr. today and he said the babies are "viable" as in, they could be born now and have a high survival rate. We have "mini goals" now. We want to make it to 28 weeks, then 30, then 32, and then they could be born any time after 32 weeks. Everything still looks good. My cervix is at 3.98, and anything over 3.5 is good. He had me push down on the top of my belly and I think Scotty almost had a heart attack thinking I was going to push one of the babies out. Baby C was very photogenic (he must take after his mother...haha) He was smiling for the camera and moving his tongue around, it was really neat to see! Baby B barely stays still and Baby A is very mellow. I think A is the most squished, so he doesn't have much of a choice! They all weight about 1.75 pounds. My movement is now on a "very limited" basis. I can take walks as long as someone is with me. So far so good! Let's hope this continues!

Well, well, well.. how exciting that you are now keeping this blog going. Blogs are the best way to keep your family and friends up to date. Thanks for sharing. I will add your blog to my favorites and keep up with your updates. Let me know when you want to do pictures. We can do them in the nursery if you are up for it. That way you don't have to go out and stress :)

Take care... the kids and I miss you lots! Oh and say hi to Scott :)

I love the blog idea. This way Dave and I can keep up with the baby (oh yeah and Mom and Dad, too) details. With all the relatives you have it would be tiring to explain the update soooo many time. I will add this to my favorites and will be watching for more updates. You are doing an awesome job, keep up the good work/rest!! Love, Tana
