Settled down

Just thought I'd write a quick update to let you all know that things have settled down.  You can tell which patients are high priority based on how much the nurses are in and out of the room.  Today I hardly saw the nurses at all.  Haha!  The bleeding pretty much stopped and I wasn't having cramping or contractions today.  I think the clot had just irritated my uterus.

So, all in all it was an uneventful day today, which is just fine in my books.  I am starting to feel like these babies will come soonish.  When I think about how we are nearly 33 weeks, it really hits me that it is highly possible that in 2-3 weeks we could be parents!  Even though I'm sitting in a hospital, reading birth/baby books, and growing larger day by day, I still feel shocked that these will actually be MY babies.  That I will be a mom.  That we will be a family.  It is pretty extraordinary.  And how cool is it that my body is growing two babies as we speak.  I still can't get over that.

So, I'll leave you with a picture of our family-to-be.  DH jokes that our babies are going to look older than us, since we are both such baby-faces.  I just think they will be cute!

  4. Congratulations on hitting 33 weeks!! You're doing an awesome job taking care of the little ones. Hoping that the passing of the clot is the end of the bleeding episodes and that you won't be seeing your little ones until you hit 36 weeks (which means you can simply have a normal birth experience and take them home).

  5. When they are born, you will look at your body in awe of what it was capable of. I still can't believe I carried both of them in there! By the way, you are being a rockstar through this.
