35 weeks!!!

(Bre here)
Yes, I made it out of the house, even though it's becoming a challenge just to walk/drive. By challenge I mean contractions, cramps and painful joints. My hips hurt just standing, which means I'm probably loosening up. :) It's hard on the body to carry around and extra 60 pounds! Yes...I now weigh more than Nick.

My contractions are longer, stronger and more frequent. However, they are still very spiratic throughout the day and not worthy of a call to the doctor.

Today we hit the 35-week mark! The goal has been to make it to 35 weeks and we made it!!!
By 35 weeks the twins' lungs should be fully functioning upon birth and they shouldn't need any respiratory assistance from this point forward.

We have our final ultrasound tomorrow along with our weekly appointment. The babes should be weighing in at just under 6lbs each by now. We're excited to see them one last time on the ultrasound before we meet them in the next 3 weeks.

Only 22 days left at the most...
