29 week update

This is the e-mail update I sent out this morning, from our appt:

Well, I had my ROC appt this morning, I'm at 29 weeks today.
Everything still looks great! My cervix is still "nice and long and closed" and both babies look awesome.
Baby A is measuring at 3 pounds, 9 ounces, and Baby B is measuring at 3 pound 7 ounces. So they are good sized babies, and basically growing at the rate of a singleton pregnancy right now. Both heartbeats look good, the amniotic fluid looks good, the doctor said that everything was just going great. Their first goal with twins is to get to 28 weeks, and then the next goal is 32 weeks, so by the time I go in and see them again, I'll be at 33 weeks.
Baby A's head is down, in the lower left section of my tummy and its body curls around to the right, and its feet are up in the upper right section of the belly. Baby B's head is at the top right of my tummy ( Baby A has its feet on B's head), and B is folded up, with its feet and legs also on top of its head. It's butt is going across the tummy, down to the left, so basically B's butt is in A's head. B is just sitting across the middle of the top of the stomach, kind of bent over.
The pictures we got today are not great, we were in a different ultrasound room, but I will still scan them tonight. I might also take some still shots of the DVD, and maybe try to see how they look. Either way, they'll be coming later, since I have to do that from home.
Please continue to pray for us and wish us good health through the remaining weeks of this pregnancy, which is less than 9 to go!!!!


So you can see from the above that everything is going great!
Sleep is NOT. I am having a terrible time getting comfy. I know it's all part of pregnancy, but it's very hard, laying down at night, getting ready to sleep the night away and you can't. I do have a new pillow though and hopefully that will help a bit.

I had my first baby related bad dream last night. I actually had 2, one worse than the other. The first one I dreamed that the babies came early and they were making me hold both of them. One was very small, but looked normal. The other one was not developed at all, it actually looked like a soup ladel ( have no idea what that means), and I kept saying, this one is not Ok, and they made me hold it, and kept saying that we needed to let God know that we wanted to keep the baby with us. It was sooo sad, and in my dream me and Billy were just crying and crying, holding the babies...and of course I woke up just sobbing. I was on the couch, so I went and woke Billy up so he could console me.

The next dream I had was that I had an ingrown hair in my stomach. I was trying to get it out, pluck it, cut it, cut a little of it out, and I was doing a little surgery on my stomach and I accidentally cut into my stomach, and it ended up being the baby's hair, not an ingrown hair. I had the little hole in my belly, and I was just trying to pull the hair out, and I realized it was attached to a head, that I could now see in my belly. Very weird.

I know that a lot of people have dreams, but I don't like the bad ones! I hope I don't have many more!

Pictures will be coming later this weekend, of the ultrasound, and of my 29 week belly. I know everyone is just dying to see THAT!
Happy Friday!
