Week 31

Time for another update and beautiful picture! We went to the Dr. yesterday morning and everything still looks great. Baby A is 4 lbs. 12 oz. and is head down ready to come out. Baby B is 4 lbs. 5 oz. and although is the smallest baby, also has the biggest head. Baby C is 4 lbs. 10 oz. and starting to explore my rib cage area. Really pleasant. They are growing in the 75th percentile, which is great. He asked if I was having any major discomfort and I said my only problem was the constant feeling that my groin muscles are going to rip. He said with over 13 pounds of baby, that's to be expected. After all this, we said, let's get to the point.....when are these babies coming out?? The Dr. said he wants me to hang on for two more weeks. He said it's possible I could go a little longer, but at the rate they are growing, it's not likely. So I suppose only time will tell! We go back next Monday to get checked out. In the mean time, Scotty continues to finish up things around the house and I continue to spend my days laying on the couch. It's actually starting to look like we are ready for some babies! Very exciting!

It is a beautiful picture! I would have to say, considering you are carrying 3 babies, you look great!! Thanks for taking such good care of yourself and my grandbabies. I meant it when I said you are my hero. You always have a smile on your face no matter what and never complain. And Scott has really stepped up to the plate and, of course, I am not surprised at all. I am very proud of both of you. Two more weeks! I am so excited I am practically jumping up and down everytime someone here at the firm asks me about the babies. I can hardly wait! Love you both lots and lots, Vicki aka GrandmaX3 ;-)
