So I have decided to kick this blog thing off ~ we have been talking about doing it for weeks but due to Rich's crazy work and home schedule, he hasn't had time to set it up. Between making me dinner (usually eggs and cheese or veggie goulash - the babies need protein!), walking devil dog (or else he becomes extremely mischevious and eats toilet paper), and doing numerous household chores he hasn't been able to get this going, although promises to keep it updated.
As a follow up to Rich's email ~ in case it wasn't totally clear, I was in the hospital Monday night for some contraction monitoring, which all seems to be ok now. I basically just received some IV fluids (I will let Rich summerize what a nightmare I am with needles and how I freaked out and started yelling at everyone including him) and got sent home in the morning. Now I am stuck at home until maybe Tuesday when I have my next doctors appointment and they will check me out again. The babies are 1 pound 14 ounces and 1 pound 10 ounces, so when they start moving and shaking they irritate me and start the contractions basically. The doctor said I am carrying the same baby weight as a 31 week singleton, so that is why they are extra cautious. In about 2 weeks the baby on the bottom bunk (one is laying higher than the other) will be in "position" meaning it probably won't move until delivery. Pray it is head down or else I am gaurnteed a c-section, and poor Rich doesn't deserve to have to deal with me through that, he may not survive. :)
