35 Weeks

Waiting, waiting, and more waiting. We've made it to 35 weeks now! I saw Dr. Ross today for my weekly check-up. I am now 2.5 cm dilated and 60% effaced. He thinks I'm going to hang on until sometime in the 36th week. I was hoping for a little more progress, but glad that all is still going well with the babies. My only complaint is that I am having more difficulty and pain these days. My doctor calls it FOB pain- "full of babies pain." But I know full well that a little discomfort is no reason to hurry these boys along. We'll see what the doctor says next week if I haven't progressed much farther. We definitely enjoyed our weekend together after our exciting Friday. We even went on a dinner date and did a little shopping (with me in the wheelchair.) Andrew got the nesting bug and knocked several things off his household punch list. I enjoyed watching him in action and did my best to keep him company since I'm not much help these days. So that's all for now- I hope my next post will be that we're on our way to the hospital- but it may be after my 36 week checkup! Please pray with us that my body will continue to respond well to the babies and support their needs, and that I will get as much rest as possible leading up to the delivery.
