28 weeks

Easter Sunday marked "28 weeks" of pregnancy. It seems as though it is all going so slowly, but at the same time....I'm sooo not ready to have 3 babies! To be honest, I'm actually quite nervous about that!

To refresh your memory, at 24 week appointment the stats were as follows:

• Two boy babies....maaaybe identical, who even knows
• Breech, breech
• One weighed in at 2 lbs. 9oz, other 2lbs. 7 oz.
• No major issues
• "Belly" (hate that word) measured 33cm

Fast forward..........28 week appointment and ultrasound today, here are the stats:

• Two boy babies.....no determining factors on identical/fraternal
• VERTEX/VERTEX!!! (Head down/head down!!!)
• Twin A measured in at 3lbs 9 oz (holy buckets!) & Twin B, 3lbs (not too worried about size difference)
• Glucose screening--Failed...bah. 3 hr Glucose test, aka human pincushion test tomorrow
• Slightly iron deficient--which I had anticipated, I misplaced a bottle of vitamins
• I measured in at 37 cm.....You may now refer to me as Katie, the Hippo. ;)

So overall, great appointment! We have a lot to be thankful for! I was starting to doubt whether or not the babies would turn back around, so I treated myself to a pregnancy massage (I thought maybe laying face down would help open things up so they could move--Guess I was right!!) However, I am bummed because I'm now officially afraid to have another massage :( Not excited about the outcome of the glucose thing, but I'm not worried that the next one will come back saying I have gestational diabetes....I've heard it's pretty common to fail the 1st one, but pass the 2nd, and my numbers weren't ridiculous. Fasting, on the other hand....will not be a good time.

Oh yeah, my stomach feels like what I would envision the inside of a bag of microwave popcorn feeling like--only more force behind the pops :)
