36 weeks

Things are still going smoothly at 36 weeks. We had our last measurement ultrasound on Wednesday and the babies' estimated weights are now 4 lbs. 13 oz. and 4 lbs. 2 oz. Baby A is bigger than Baby B but this is nothing to be concerned about.  If I don't go into labor on my own, an induction will be scheduled for December 8th or 9th at 38 weeks. So within 2 weeks, the girls will be here! If only we could decide on names... 

34 weeks

We are in the home stretch! 34 weeks is a big milestone, especially for twins. If they were to be delivered now, although premature, they would most likely be in good health and would need little or no medical intervention. The average delivery age for twins is 36 weeks.

Since Pat is usually the one behind the camera, we realized we had very few pictures together and took some time to get some photos.

Finally, here's some proof that pregnancy brain can be contagious (sorry, Pat):

33 weeks

Things are still going well! I had fetal monitoring twice last week and things are looking good for both babies. They have good heart rates and movement. We are taking it day by day, but hopefully things will continue smoothly for the next month.

My company really gets into Halloween so I went with the obvious costume choice...

And here are some photos my resident photographer took of me at 33 weeks. The bare belly photo is one you won't see on Facebook!
