32 weeks

32 week appointment was Tuesday, everything still looks great they say!!  Baby A was 3.9lbs and Baby B was 4.1lbs.  They are growing good!  Baby B is still being stuborn and won't turn head down, and because he is bigger than A now they said to probably expect a c-section unless things change before I go into labor.  Still trying to hold out for 36 weeks, 4 more to go!!  Sleeping has become a real challenge, but at least the boys have been behaving at night and not fighting over which side I should lay on anymore :)
I also had a non-stress test today and both babies passed.  (A non-stress test is where they put a heart monitor band on each baby and one on my uterus, and then you just lay there for about half an hour) Baby B was not very cooperative!  I don't think he liked the tight band on him and was moving around a lot so the nurse had to keep moving the band around to find his heartbeat again :)  It was fun to see their heartbeats change when they moved around! 

To My Boys:

To my boys:

Baby A, I know you would rather have me sleep on my right side, but I just can’t stay there all night.  Baby B, I know you would rather have me sleep on my left side, but like I told your brother, I just can’t stay there all night.  You two need to come to some kind of compromise so we can all start sleeping better!  And no more of this making mom hungry at 3 in the morning, we are waking Dad up and confusing the dog when we have a bowl of cereal in the middle of the night!!
