The girls are eggplants this week, or if you prefer, rutabagas. So big! My doctor said I'm measuring 31 weeks (i.e., same size as a singleton mom at 31 weeks). That's typical for twins, measuring about 6 weeks ahead. Thus I'm basically in my third trimester, aches and pains wise. Weeeeee :-)
I just had my glucose tolerance and hemoglobin tests and I'm good so far - enough iron, no gestational diabetes. And the sweet drink you have to drink for the glucose test wasn't really bad at all. I've heard some women really complain about it.
We had our first Bradley Method class last night (yes, during the Packer game...one of the dads in class is British so not as much complaining about missing it as I had thought there'd be). It's great! Me being a dork and all, I'm really excited to have lots of homework. We have to read from different books and handouts and do exercises and monitor our diets. Kurt is less thrilled :-)
But already a technique I learned from class helped me sleep through the night last night for the first time in a couple weeks. Awesome! I'm feeling excited and optimistic about having these two eggplants naturally.
Have a lovely weekend!
