I know it has been quite a while since I last posted...I have been waiting on pictures! Isn't that why you all look at this blog anyway?? Like my brother-in-law said, "Jen is getting huge!" Thanks, Zach :) At least you are honest. That should sum up what you will see with the pictures I will post from last Saturday's shower. In the meantime, here is a quick update on my last couple doctor's appointments. Everything is looking good! The stitch is doing it's job, and my contractions have been under control. I only have one more appointment with the high risk specialist on July 28th, and that is the last time I will see him! They will do one final ultrasound that day, and if everything looks good with the girls, they will take me off all my medication. Yeah!! I won't be sad at all to not have to carry my friend (the Turbutaline pump) around with me anymore. My OBGYN will finish up the job from there. I will be 33 weeks this Friday. The doctors have told me after 34 weeks they will not try to stop me from going into labor.
I think it is really starting to sink in for both Chris and I that we will soon have two baby girls to look after. Chris has been busy putting together all of the fun gifts we received last weekend at our shower. He was pushing our double stroller around the living room Sunday to "make sure it worked." Also, the nursery is almost finished!
We have been overwhelmed with the generosity of our friends and family with all of the help and support they have provided through this whole pregnancy-- from cleaning our house, to cooking, to babysitting the dog, to keeping me company while on bed rest, to throwing baby showers, and everything else we never thought we would have to rely on others for. We are so lucky!
