32 week baby baby belly

it's LARGE
it's out there
I almost got stuck in the bathroom stall at the movies
I don't turn down help 'getting up' from the doctors table anymore
can it REALLY get bigger?

.stats.
32 weeks
measuring 42 cm
44 1/2 inches around *gasp*
my scale has decided to stop working... I think it's trying to save me

average singleton weight at 32 weeks... 3 lbs. 8 oz.
average twin weight at 32 weeks... 4 lbs. 3 oz.
We'll find out next week what our babies weigh... baby B was 4 lbs 4 oz. 2 weeks ago and baby A was 3 lbs. 9 oz.

OB appointment went well yesterday
cervix is 1.1 cm YIKES!
babies look good... no details peri does that
fluid looks good... no measurements peri does that too
baby A is head down still... good little babe
baby A is breech still... silly little babe

she did say... considering that I've delivered 4 previous children all around 8-9 lb.s that she would be open to delivering baby B breech even if he/she were bigger than Baby A. YEAH! A little scary to think about delivering breech but I would rather do that than a c-section. We'll start planning specifics at 36 weeks and hopefully baby B will be head down by then.

  6. Oh I forgot.. My MIL had twin boys: both 8 pounds!! That's 16 pounds of JUST baby!! haha...
    Then she had a 9 pounder singleton and the 4th? Ben.. well he was 10 1/2!

  9. I've missed you too! Love the belly pics!

    Do you wear one of those support bands at all? I'm just curious b/c I'm only 24 weeks (with only one!) and starting to feel like it hurts down there, especially when I am putting on pants, tmi?

    Can't wait to hear what the peri says!

  10. You go girl! I agree. You can do this...silly breech baby and all. Getting so close to meeting those precious little ones! And you're beautiful as always...such an inspiration to people (who shall remain nameless) to get up and put some make up on and a cute shirt!!

  13. I still cant BELIEVE how SMALL you are everywhere else!!! =)

    you look faulous as always.

    Is is feeling different? Is your stomach bigger now than you were at the very end with your other babies?

  14. Do you have any names picked out for the babies? Are you going to keep it a secret until they are born?

  20. Lookin' good, Brittany! And I'm so glad you're back. I could tell that was hard for you! Being on the couch/chair with not a whole lot of connection to the outside world... that's rough stuff. At least it would be for me!

    But, you're right! Who cares now - You're baaaack!

  21. I remember rubbing against the counters edge while pregnant and how tender it was! I can't imagine what it feels like beyond 38-40 wk measurements!

    Good news about possibly delivering Baby B breech, of course hopefully he/she will turn for you!

  22. Yowza! I cannot imagine - but, that is one stinking cute baby baby belly!

  25. P.S. But as I look, um, you are quite big to have a few weeks left!! Wishing you the best!

  26. You look fantastic! Big baby bellies are the best. I hope those babies keep up the good work in there. Scary to deliver breech, but I am totally with you....its got to be better than a c-section. Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

  27. You're looking awesome!! So nice that your OB is willing to do a breech birth!! In most area's that's unheard of, as far as I know. Seems like too many doctors are afraid of liability. Well just remember even in the Bible there was a twin birth where one was breech, and they were just fine! And you'll be in the hospital with all the modern technologies... God will watch over the 3 of you. :)

  28. Oh...All good news I think ...yay!!

    I'm getting a smooth sailing vibe now so that's great :):)

    I'm really hoping you get to deliver how you'd like...really hoping...

    ReplyDelete
  29. aww! You and those babies are stunning! :)

    Thanks for offering to talk... I might take you up on that... Hopefully within the next 8 weeks- eh? ;)

  30. Great news about a vaginal delivery. Great belly shot. :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. STUNNING! REALLY! I am soo happy to see another photo! I know you feel large, but you look amazing. And the option to deliver both...how EXCITING! Scary yes, I cannot even imagine, but how wonderful to know the option is there. What's a few second more right????? Just kidding...I will not speak for I have not done it! I have, however, delivered a 11.5 1/2 baby...and that hurt!

  33. You look great! Love that baby baby bump. :)

  34. Love the pictures! So cute! And what a great book of belly photos you'll have. I'm so jealous...and totally wish I would have taken more during our pregnancy.

    Now, please say again. Did you just say that your doc is considering delivering your breech BABY B vaginally...when it IS the heavier of the two? Because we did a vaginal birth with baby B being breech BUT the SMALLER of the two. Can you explain more?

    ReplyDelete
  35. I love, love, love your belly...I think if I was one of your "real life" friends I would be that annoying one that interacts with your tummy more than with you and would probably have my hand on your tummy every two seconds ;D

  36. You look great, Brittany! You and Angelina know how to rock that twin baby belly. :-)

    So glad you got your computer back, and can keep us updated. Can't wait to hear how big they are.

  37. Your OB sounds great ! And supportive! You know that I am excited to hear that they give the "OK" to deliver breech. You go girl! I know you can do it! You are looking GREAT!
