Had a 28 week scan last week which just about showed 2 babies (Its getting very crowded in there & the sonographer had difficulty in getting all the measurements she needed).
Looks like both babies are females & weigh 2lb 6ozs & 2lb 8ozs respectively which puts them a few ounces over a singleton baby at this stage according to the books.
Both are fine with strong heartbeats and are now kicking like mad - there are times when my bump looks like something out of that scene in Alien.
I'm feeling very tired these days, have horrible swollen ankles and suffer from dreadful heartburn but otherwise am really enjoying being pregnant.
Because of my age & the fact that I'm expecting twins I've been signed off work until I go on maternity leave. My boss has been great about it & we've come to the agreement that I'll do a little bit of work from home over the next 4 weeks plus take a weeks holiday so as not to compromise my maternity leave. I'm allowed to have 2 outings a week (excluding antenatal appointments)
If I'm a good girl, keep my feet up & rest over this period we should get past the 36 week stage.
Caroline, like you we've been doing some window shopping & have narrowed it down to a choice of 2 double buggies and 2 car seats. John Lewis say that if we order them in advance they can store them for us until we want them - obviously they're geared up to deal with superstitious mums-to-be!
I'm off for one of my two outings this week - a full pregnancy massage
Good luck to all those in the 3rd tri.
Love
Jude
