I just got back from my OB appt. Everything is going great! Boys’ heartbeats were both 153! Blood pressure was normal, and I gained 4 1/2 pounds! She also checked my cervix again (only because the nurse had me get undressed) and it was still thick and closed. She gave me a prescription for Pepsid and told me that I could use the Pepsid AC (OTC) if I would prefer…which ever was cheaper for me. I’ll have another u/s at 32 weeks (somewhere the week of Feb 21st…what a great Birthday present huh? My birthday is the 22nd). She also said that a good goal for me was to make it to 37 weeks…that would be the best (37 weeks would be the week of March 28th). If I get to 38 weeks, they’ll induce me. She wants me to at least make it to 34 weeks (which is the week of March 7th). She won’t do another cervix check until/if things change or I start contracting. So as long as these boys stay head down we’ll be having a vag. delivery!! Can I say again that I really love this dr?!!

When the dr measured my belly, she told me that it was the size of woman at 36 weeks pregnant with 1 baby!! WOW!!

My next appt is in 2 weeks…January 27th!

I feel…: cheerful
