32 weeks

All is well in the land of babies. I had my non-stress today and did not have a single contraction. The babies heartrates were excellent. My blood pressure was 138/90 when I first got to the office, but after 15 minutes was down to 122/70. Still something my doctor wants to watch of course. Weight gain is about 42 pounds. I am measuring 38.5 weeks.

32 weeks with Addison on left/twins on right

I imagine this will be the second to last belly picture. I am certain these babies will go to at least 36 weeks. No stretch marks yet, but I doubt I can escape them here in the last four to six weeks. I am interested to see how much these babies weigh. I won't find out until my next ultrasound on June 23rd.



How my singleton and twin pregnancy have differed: with Addison I just stopped running at 31 weeks. Up to that point, I was running 15-20 miles a week. I switched to walking for a couple of weeks. With this pregnancy, water aerobics is all I want to do and feel like I can do! Water has always been a true friend to me! Things that have happened in the last week include: vomiting(for the first time in either of my pregnancies), pitting edema, lots of contractions of some sort, carpal tunnel in my right hand and lots of hand numbness.

Until next week...
