[sms2524]

Hey ladies! Crazy to think how close we are! I've been a lurker lately, my PgAL brain had been doing so well up until last week, but for some reason when I switched from one a day Lovenox to twice a day heparin I started freaking out and just want her here in the outside. I think it's because the heparin burns like a biatch and every time I do it she moves which makes me think she feels it too
37 weeks today, 2 more weeks until my scheduled c-section! Feeling large and heartburn is kicking in high gear but other than that still feeling pretty good, which is nice because I'm hoping to work up until the day before she's here.
QOTW: pretty excited to use the Halo since I'm gonna be a c-section momma, but my favorite gift is a tiny Cape Cod bracelet she got from close friends of ours. It's a basic sterling silver bracelet with a silver ball for the clasp, simple but classic Cape Cod which is where we're from, I wear mine all the time so I can't wait for her to wear hers too.

jennykat . awesome job with the freezer meals! I keep thinking we need to do that but am secretly hoping our families will stock us up when they come to town to visit.

Hey everyone- 35+4 here.

We have 9 days until our scheduled c-section. I am losing my damn mind. Kenley died 6 days before her scheduled c-section, so I am kind of just trying to separate the two (and failing miserably).

We've been having bi-weekly NSTs (only 3 more left including today!), and Alden is passing with flying colors. We've been to L&D twice, once was on Saturday. She was moving, just not enough or my liking. My Blood pressure was perfect when checked at home, and she had a heartbeat when I checked (6 times) throughout the day. So I let the crazy win that day, but once we were at L&D, everything checked out and I felt better.

My doctor is amazing and she's been emailing me back within minutes of me writing her with any questions or concerns.

Just trying to stay sane and not let the stress/anxiety/PTSD get the best of me...but it's proving to be pretty much impossible. I just need her here, alive. I need to hear her screaming.

Hope everyone is doing well!

rslh10 hope the 9 days fly by for you! That's awesome your dr is so amazing and responsive.

[sms2524]

rslh10 I cannot imagine how challenging these last several days are going to be. Hoping the time somehow flies by and you have your baby in your arms real soon!!!!!!

[dukegirlsc]

jennykat It sounds like you are in uber nesting mode! I'm impressed with all the freezer meals, I wanted to do lots but don't have the freezer space!

. Yay for having your induction date all set!

sms2524, I am so sorry that PgAL brain is giving you such a hard time, hang in there mama, not too much longer now!

rslh10 I'm hoping time flies for you and Alden is in your arms safe and sound soon ((hugs))

Hi ladies,

I'm 36+2 today with twins. According to our growth scan yesterday Baby Girl is 6lbs and Baby Boy is 6lb 2 oz so we are looking good! I'm on bedrest due to my BP going up a little bit last week, it's looking much better now though. We are scheduled for induction on Monday when I will be 37+1, I was 50% effaced last week but not dilated so I'm a little concerned about that but hopefully that has improved this week and I'm having acupuncture on Sunday to try and get things started prior to induction! It's hard to believe that I will have babies in my arms this time next week!

That being said I'm hoping there is a new comer to the 3rd Tri board that will want to take over next week!
