baby A is still head down and baby b is STILL breech... there's still time... I hope
I had my OB appointment yesterday and everything looks good... my cervix is holding on and not getting thinner. This 'bedrest' is working I guess. Although she did say that we still have plently of time for 'strict' bedrest. I sure hope not though.
You're looking awesome! Love that colour of your shirt - what's your favorite place for maternity clothes?
ReplyDeletethanks! :) Ummm.... I don't really wear maternity clothes much. That shirt is INC. I buy most of my clothes at thrift stores... love it... if I see a shirt on a rack and there are 10 of them it just bothers me. I don't want to wear what everyone else is wearing.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely BEAUTIFUL! How do some women manage to look so stunning pregnant?! I was not one of those women, but you are! =)
ReplyDeleteGlad the bedrest is working. Like you've said, it'll all be worth it.
I gained 40 lbs with my son and he was under 6 when he was born, so I was really wondering what the heck was up with all the extra weight! Your comment about the other 33 lbs reminded me of that. ;)
Glad to hear that everything is going well....you look majorly GREAT, as usual!
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on the 500th post....I'll AMEN to 500 more! :-)
cheers to the next 500...
ReplyDeleteand I'm so glad that all is going well with you and the babies!
Seriously I have to say the pregnant momma is gorgous...gor-gous!!!! I too swore of maternity (for the most part) after my first pregnancy and the novelty had worn off! But don't you think with 2 in there you may need some in the end??? Hang in there though....you look GREAT in "normal" clothes! Still living vicariously through you...so keep updating! Thanks
ReplyDeleteWOW~ VERY IMPRESSIVE!
ReplyDeleteYOUR SUCH A GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER TOO!!
DONNA B. UPSTATE NY!
Wow, I wish the thrift stores by us had clothes like that. I have had NO luck finding anything half decent. Although there are some great consignment stores around here, and I've been able to find some sweet deals lately. Have to admit, I was inspired by your blog to try places like that out!
ReplyDeleteyou look smashing, darlin!!!
ReplyDeleteThat last photo...holy cow...your poor body has to grow for so much longer....
Lather up the skin, I'm guessing! :)
Happy 26 weeks!
Just some encouragement... I have a friend who had twins in Dec and one was breach and the other head down. She was able to deliver both of them naturally. The head down one came first and she says they grabbed the other by the legs and pulled her out! They were 6 weeks early and 4lbs 14oz and 5lbs 2oz. I'm sure you already know this but because there are twins they will make you deliver in the OR. My friend said she didn't know that and it freaked her out so just a heads up :) Oh yeah and you look great!
ReplyDeleteAWWW you're so cute!
ReplyDeleteAww. Such a pretty belly!
ReplyDeleteI had a girlfriend deliver twins too, one head down, cephalic and the other breech with no problems and she got to 38 weeks. Very healthy!!
ReplyDeleteYou look wonderul and like you are taking it all in your stride (from the sofa!!)
I am one of those pregnant women that seems to just spread and need maternity trousers almost from straight away!! and tops as my boobs just expand!! so I am envious of your compact body despite the obvious growing tum~
That belly is just amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat's a big belly...but it's ALL BELLY, no weight anywhere else! You look amazing!
ReplyDeleteI have not been on your post in a long time and you are looking so good. I will pray that you do not have to go on strict bedrest.
ReplyDeleteYou look great!!!
ReplyDeleteHope all is well, and thanks for keeping us updated, and sharing with us!
Those are fab photos! Especially the last one with a little belly below. Too cute.
ReplyDeleteYou're such a cute mama!
hey there. our thoughts are with you daily. Glad you are taking such good care of yourself. I had a strict talking to with Paul today:) I am sure he will tell you. Seriously though I worry that he is 'the help' these days. I can't really imagine him cooking and cleaning. But he says he is:) Hope so. I can't imagine how hard it is. I feel like I am tied down these days with Brilyn and can't do the stuff I want to do, but I just keep reminding myself it's all a stage and I will have lots of time later in life to clean my floors, but they are driving me crazy and I am hiring a cleaning girl for now. And I know when the kids are grown I won't remember my dirty floors. Had a great time with Grayson. I can tell he is a good helper. It was good to get to know 'just him' a little better and Cole loved it! I hope he had fun too. Felt so bad about the sunburn. I knew better on that one:) Take care of those babies. Can't wait to meet them.
ReplyDeleteFellow Mom of 2 yr old twins, a 5 yr old and one on the way. It's been a pleasure to read your blog and how your coping with all of that is happening in your life. Your boys are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI had to tell my Mom's group about you because I was amazed at your life...lol! They all think I am busy...HA!
Take care and glad to hear the bedrest is working.
You are looking great! And don't worry about the pounds!?! Your sustaining 3 lives so of course you are going to gain more weight! It is just a number! Your a mama of 4 you know that! And as for the breech babe I hope you let him be. I was worried for my breech babe trying acupuncture, homeopathies etc. with no movement. Finally trusting God and my body I choose to deliver naturally, at home, breech and it was a good thing I did cause he had a short cord and turning could have been detrimental. His Creator knew best and all was perfect. Your birth for these 2 will be just as perfect as the other 4, breech or not.
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog through Adventures in Babywearing... Thought I'd stop by... Your boys are beautiful and you look GREAT! Twins? Wow! You're glowing! Congrats on such a blessing!
ReplyDeleteI love that you have chronicled your belly every week and I can't believe how it changes in a week!
ReplyDeleteI love that top - very cute. Sounds like things are going well and of couse you look fabulous, since you are all belly! : )
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative with taking belly shots. I wish I had mirrors in good lighting so I could do the same :) You look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWow you look so great, You should be proud to carry twins (after already have 4 births) so well.
