1 month


Yes, I've been in the hospital for 1 month now. I look forward to Tuesdays and Thursdays for my "anniversary days". Tuesdays are my weekly milestones for being hospitalized and, most importantly,  Thursdays are my girls' weekly milestones.

Last night, Holly & Chad brought me the most delicious home cooked meal. Chad's famous ribs, corn, potatoes & gravy, homemade butter pecan ice cream & some other delicious desserts that I don't know the name of, but they are gone haha. Needless to say, the girls had no room to swim around inside mamas stuffed belly last night. Thank you both so much!!!


My dad brought me breakfast this morning for our usual Tuesday bonding time. Then my hubby brought me dinner and we celebrated this anniversary with grandma Judy's famous chocolate pie. There's no better pie than grandma Judy's chocolate pie :) thank you for all my goodies! 


Today my OB told me that she and my specialist agreed that if things continue to go well, they will deliver our girls at 34 weeks, which would put us on or around October 24th. I immediately was so excited just to have some sort of date in mind. She quickly reminded me that we are not out of the woods yet and to not get too excited until we are holding 2 healthy girls.  I just can't help but to be so excited especially when I look at the calendar and see that in the next 3 weeks we are finally going to meet these beautiful babies.  I also had an ultrasound today and the girls are measuring right on track and weighing 3lbs 10oz & 3lbs 8oz. I don't get anymore ultrasound pictures of the girls since I am in the hospital because they don't print them out here. But take my word for it, they looked so precious today. One of them was swallowing fluid - I saw her little mouth moving and swallowing, it's so cool to see them on the screen as I feel them moving around inside of me. The other baby's bladder was full- she had to potty like her mama :). It's absolutely incredible to watch them inside of me and to accomplish so much development. SO proud of our girls. Great day today! Thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers. Xoxoxo
