28 weeks: doctor visit

I got my green card, it is to be carried everywhere, at all times. Dr. Reed put on there that she is to be called even if she is not on call. Haha she told Jeramie and I she liked us... we are unique and memorable. Isn't that special :D See lip piercings are good.

My uterus measurements went from 30 to 33 inches in 2 weeks! Everyone in the office were like how many weeks are you again... you are huge... and Dr. Reed said you are definitely growing. I have only gained 20 lbs (3 lbs from were I started from) but it is all babies.

As for me:
Modified bed rest continued, can't go out of town after my baby shower, and she wants me to stop driving pretty soon. I have to go in for weekly appointments starting next Monday.

Due to the craziness with rushing off to the specialist and threat of surgery... Dr. Reed didn't schedule an ultrasound but she got us fit into the schedule. Mom was there so it was awesome for her to be able to see the little ones. Baby A (boy) is 2 lbs 7 oz heart rate was 140 and Baby B (girl) is 2 lbs. 14 oz. heart rate was 142. My little man is falling behind in the weight factor. Besides that he is breech and she is head down... they switched directions since last time. They both have hair... he has a mullet haha and they both have big cheeks. Mom thinks she looks like me and he is a mix between Jeramie and I... he has Jeramie's cheek bones. My cervix length is 3.6 inches and they are keeping an eye out for warnings of pre-term labor and an eye on the little guy. She said everything looks good but the count down is about to begin. I am freakin' out about delivery ahhhh.

Now we have to start the kick count chart... fun fun.

Ultrasound pictures to come.
