DR Update

I went to the doctor today for my now weekly appointment and sono. Baby A weighs in at 4lbs 1 oz. and Baby B weighs in at 4lbs 2 oz. Dr. Morton said they could not be doing more perfect (we are having a sono every week to make sure their weight stays within a pound of each other, if this happens then both placentas are working like they should). I DO NOT have to go on bed rest this week and may not at all if we keep doing good. Dr. Morton said the babies would be ok if born now, they would just spend a few weeks in the NICU, but if we can make it just 2 more weeks they would only need a little bit of oxygen and a little more help learning how to eat. If we can make it just 4 more weeks they should not need any NICU time at all and be able to go home with us. She will more than likely take them the last week in February or the first week in March. SO keep praying that they stay put 4 more weeks!

Oh and both girls (they did in fact confirm they are both still girls) are face down so no pictures to post this week.

How does February 25th sound to you? It would make a lovely 33rd birthday present for me!
I love reading your updates and as always you and the babies stay in our prayers. Karen
