Last month's month appointment went as expected. I passed the glucose test! They took a peak at the girls and they were hanging out one on top of the other in a transverse position, which explains why I only felt movements above my belly button! I'll admit I've been a little freaked out about them being transverse but I've been doing research online and I'm prepared to try my own version if I have to, under the doctors care of course.
Today we are 1 week shy of 7 months. I've gained 30lbs so far, which I guess is good for twins?! I feel huge but I'm all belly.
My feet have started swelling so much that my toes look like vienna sausages. It's pretty scary looking. I'm also having issues with varicose veins, some in the most uncomfortable places.
The girls are quite active all the time. There is never a down time between the two of them. Oh, and I'm pretty sure within the last couple of days that they have changed positions. I can feel movement and pressure much lower than I could before. It makes me excited BUT I'm starting to wonder if what I'm feeling are feet!!
Our next appointment in on December 30th. We are set up first thing in the morning for a growth scan followed by a RhoGAM shot in the butt. Good times! I can't wait to see the girls and how much they are growing. I'm really hoping I can talk the tech into taking a couple of 3D (or 4D) shots for B and C since they won't be able to make it down.
I promise to update on time after our next appointment.
