Perinatal Appointment

Weight - +3 41 lbs in all (I am going by their scale not my OBs)
Blood Pressure - Ok
Inches around - still 52"

They did not do any measurements on the girls today. They looked at their hearts, but that was it. They did do a FFN test and checked my cervical length. My cervix is definitely opening, an obvious funnel now. It is fully open on the inside and has no length to it. I am not dilating, but she did put me on bed rest and pelvis rest, which means I can have no fun during said bed rest :-) She didn't seem too concerned about it. She said I just needed to stay off my feet now. She also said we would not stop labor after 34 weeks which is this Saturday, but I am thinking with bed rest we could still go a couple of weeks. I will feel better when they weigh 5 lbs.

Z has 2 more days of school left and I am still going to take him and pick him up. Then he is going out of town on Thursday with his dad so that is good timing. Sorry, this is so short and boring but I am just beat today. I am going to get started on my bed rest now.

I go to my OB on Thursday morning and I think we will have a better idea of where we are after I talk to him then. So stay tuned.... :-)

Ooooh... I admit the thought of twins kind of frightens me... not enough that I chose not to use clomid... wait... two is good... three scares me.

Sorry to hear about the bedrest but it's great that you've almost reached 34 weeks!
