Stephanie those are two of the most perfect little boys I've ever seen!! What gorgeous newborns!! So big for twins... love the different hairlines... LOL Thank you for posting so quickly. I hope you are doing wonderfully and can finally *breathe*. haha

I lost my mucus plug this morning and doctor said I am just over 2 cm dilated. Nothing much more than that, but hopefully my body is slowly preparing and I will dilate slowly before hitting actual labour. I'm a wimp? LOL

Stephanie- What handsome little guys!!! And they both ended up being pretty big! They look great and since it was vaginal Im guessing things went well. Congrats a million times over to you and DH!!! Those weights are encouraging and make me want to go as far as I can so I can give these 2 time to chunk up. Keep posting pics and try to get some rest.

Kelley- Look at your adorable little belly!!! I guess even though I am relatively tall (5’8”) I have a very short torso and am mainly legs. I think my belly is going to look more like yours as the weeks go by. I don’t feel like im too far behind at 14 wks already. Stinks that youre having your glucose test but at least it will be over with after Monday. So exciting that the babies are kicking and moving all over…I cant wait to get to that stage and know they are doing ok.

Lou- I am so sorry that some people are bailing on you. No matter what Im sure you will have a great turn out and those who come will be beyond excited for you. Try to keep your head up and know that no matter what it will turn out great.

Ryann- So glad Bella is doing well. Im sure it was relieving to hear her little heart thumping away in there. They sound like they are getting big and growing like crazy. I can just picture little Dylan all spread out like a king lol.

Gina- Those boys are too cute!!! Not sure who is who but looks like one was about to crack a smile while the other is about to dose off. Glad you are enjoying parenthood and have 2 handsome little guys at home with you.

Stephanie - O...M...G those boys of yours are just too cute!!! I can't stop looking at the picture, they're just adorable! What fabulous weights and I'm so glad you got to deliver vaginally. Great job mama!! I'm so happy for you and DH!!! :D

Sonya - YAY for losing your mucous plug and being 2cm dilated! That much closer to delivering Brogan, woo-hoo! I love how we have a batch of births happening these next few weeks...so exciting!

Kelley - Great twin bump you're sporting there! You look awesome! And hope your glucose test goes well on Monday.

Ryann - Bella & Dylan's weight estimates look great already for being 30+ weeks. Glad they did the u/s too so you could see that Bella changed positions. Definitely makes her lack of movement (or moreso you not feeling her as much) make sense. I'm still so thankful everything was a-ok.

Here is my 37 week pic from yesterday. (My shirt is really not stretched out as much as it looks - for some reason when I resized the photo in photobucket, it made my shirt look all psychedelic.) Only 2 more belly pics to go!

Margi - I know I love having Ryann and Stephanie (well did) ahead of me. It gives you hope that it can be done. And there experiences are so helpful.

Ryann - Your babies are getting so big -you are taking great care of them. I'm glad they did the US and all is well and your mind is at ease.

Stephanie - LOVE LOVE LOVE the baby picture. you are my idol -6 and 7 pound twins, vaginal birth and you made it to 38 weeks!!!! I hope to follow right in your footprints. I can't believe you are home already. Enjoy them and I wish you all the best and some good nights sleep!!!(I know yeah right)

Rio - I saw that post and I have been looking into them. I had seen a double carrier like that but didn't know where to find. Once again, always with the great advise and internet finds!!! Thank you.

Sonya - Sounds like you are progressing well. Will you be posting the next new baby picture?

SD - ARRG! I hate it when husbands do that. Atleast yours enjoy the treats - mine throws them away more often than not!!

Blair - Yes, get ready for the ever expanding belly. You think you are growing now - I look back at those pictures when I thought I was huge and I was so tiny. It just keeps growing. I love it, laugh at it but at times I just wish it would give me some time to adjust. I hit my belly so often because I forget how big it is and I won't open the door wide enough or I try and sneak past things and bang, there is my belly!!

Klinger - You are looking so good!!! Maribel will be here before you know it.

Barbara - Any day now, just think how healthy your little one will be. We need to start placing bets on who will be next to deliver - you or Sonya.

Annashope - Love hearing that things are quiet for you. Hope and pray you stay that way for another 5 weeks or longer.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. I'm spending today and tomorrow eating fruit to make up for Sunday.
