Hi purplefish! Sorry to hear about your blood pressure, that's the same thing that happened to me a couple of weeks ago and they had me do a 24-hour urine capture so check for proteins and rule out preeclampsia. I hope everything works out okay, but I know your quite far along so the twins will do well.
kittymom - How are you? I hope you're recovering from the c-section and that your little babies are continuing to grow.
Any update on when you or the babies get to go home?
julia_78 - Sounds like you've been busy, but you got alot done! I'm still trying to find a pediatrician as well as a nanny. I haven't been very successful with either so far, but hopefully soon.
AFM - At my
OB appt this week we decided to schedule me for a c-section on 1/31/11 which will be exactly 38 weeks.
Baby Boy in vertex but Baby Girl is transverse, they've been in that position for about a month and not likely to shift since I'm quite far along and there's no room for them to move. I was a little bummed at first about having to do a c-section, but one thing I did make clear with my
OB is that I would deliver them both vaginally or via c-section not both. Although the boy is vertex and in presenting position, there's no way to know if Baby girl will descend properly and then they would have to do a c-section anyway. There's no way that I want to recover or deal with the complications from both! So, I get to sit tight for a little over 2 weeks unless they decide to come earlier!
Hope everyone is well and taking care. Looking forward to more birth announcements and pictures!
