This morning Brenda had another appointment with the doctor. A C-Section delivery is now scheduled for December 31st, however even the doctor said she could deliver any day now,\u00a0 and would not likely make it to the 31st.<\/p>\n
I still stay next week is the week! At that point they will be over 7 lbs. each. You can really feel how large they are now just by touching her stomach, and last night I was able to play with one of them a little. Every time I pushed on his leg he would move it, so I kept following his leg and gently pushed on it. He told me he liked it.<\/p>\n
Brenda has had no problems with gestational diabetes, and her blood pressure has been very good all through the pregnancy. All in all she\u2019s had a very healthy pregnancy, especially for having twins. Normally multiple pregnancies have more complications.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll find out soon enough I guess.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
