26 weeks
Yesterday we had an appointment with our OB, who was called into the OR unexpectedly, so we ended up seeing another doctor for this appointment. The babies are growing and the ultrasound showed they were "practicing breathing," which is encouraging as they prepare for life outside the womb. The doctor did measure my belly today, which is typically something they don't rely on for monitoring growth in a twin pregnancy, but it was fun to learn that I'm measuring at 39.5 weeks (if I was carrying just one baby). So, yes, the belly is getting very big. We're spending our Saturday's taking classes - Infant/Child CPR, birthing classes, etc. Yes, we are learning things, but no I don't think a few classes can completely prepare us for what is coming :-) Have a great weekend!
