For twins, the average for delivery is 36 weeks (compared to 40 being full term) so all along I was just hoping they didn\u2019t come before then. So we\u2019ve made it to a major milestone.<\/p>\n
I know it sounds like the same report every week and to some degree it is, but Brenda is still doing very well and is now confined to either laying in bed watching TV, or sitting in her rocker\/glider chair and watching TV. Overall she\u2019s still feeling good, but she suffered from headaches more this week then in the past.<\/p>\n
The boys are pretty large. It\u2019s very easy for her to feel their arms and legs specifically moving now, and they seem to either punch her bladder or kick at her ribs and lungs.\u00a0 They are probably very close to 7 lbs. each right now.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m officially not scheduled at the office after Tuesday of this week, and have off until the third week in January. So as long as they don\u2019t come until Wednesday or later, I\u2019m happy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
