This is my first post from my iPhone, so we'll see how it goes... Our computer is a huge prehistoric monster (over 6 years old), and my carpal tunnel has been so terrible that I don't feel like lugging that beast to the couch for an update.
Besides the carpal tunnel and general discomfort, I'm feeling pretty good. It looks like I will make it to my final baby shower tomorrow, so that's good news!
We actually had an excellent appointment this week. We had growth scan with the "good" u/s tech. Although all the techs have been good, she's the most thorough. When I saw it was her, I told Al to ask about recording the u/s on the cd our original peri had given us. I'm so happy she agreed because the last recording was from my 12 week appointment and I really wanted one of them bigger so it was perfect.
The babies are all growing right on target for 27 weeks; Baby A was 2 lbs 3 oz, Baby B was 2 lbs 2 oz, and Baby C is 2 lbs even. All three babies were practicing breathing and moving around a lot! We even saw Baby B kick her poor brother in the head. The u/s tech also got a bunch of great 3D images. Baby A was showing off his breathing skills and even stuck his tongue out at us. Baby B was once again practicing her contortionist (sp) skills by having her arms and legs covering her face. Baby C is buried under the placenta and likes to hide, but we did get a good image of her from a birdseye view.
Next week I have the fun 1 hour glucose test. So far eveything else is going well, so I hope to breeze through the 1 hour.
Other stats:
Weight: 162 (up 43 lbs)
Cervix: 3.4 with no funneling
blood pressure: 102/60
belly measurement: 42.5
Symptoms: contractions, carpal tunnel, backaches, swollen hands and feet, bleeding gums - sounds lovely, doesn't it?
Cravings: Sweet and salty foods, but I'm trying to limit my intake especially on sweets.
