    hey Julesy,
    I am due early Feb. Doc says 20% chance of going full term so I am hanging in. Just the last wk or so I have had a lot of low pressure and I seem to be dropping. The boy has been head down ready to go for 5wks. The girl is above him and still partially breech. Heres hoping she holds him back. HA HA We got a 4d ultrasound done, they are amazing!!! Have you had one? Look after yourself and those precious bundles. Love Kim. xoxo

    Yes, I got the 4D ultrasound done for our first baby and would highly recommend it to anyone. It's almost like meeting them for the first time. Absolutely incredible!! It's good that at least one is head down, I'm hoping both will be ready to go for me, because I REALLY don't want to have one vaginally and one via c-section...one or the other I say!! If they are both not in good positions, I'm going the c-section!!

    Good luck, I'm sure you'll make it full term. Fingers crossed for you anyway!

    Cool

    :doctor: Hey Julesy,

    I sure hope I have them both naturally and problem free but Dr. says it is quite possible to have one natural and one c-section .... not nice. I will worry about that when the time comes I guess? I spent 3hrs having glucose blood tests today, and fasted since last night! That was torture to a starving women ...I had a screen done last week and my glucose level was high. I hope the results are good. Will keep you informed! Hope you are well. Take care. Kim

    Unhappy


    Hey Julesy,
    How are you going? Hope all is well. I saw my specialist yesterday and both bubs heads are well down/engaged and my cervix is only 1cm long!!! I have been put on a course of steriods to boost the bubs lungs because he is concerned I will go into labour very soon! I have to have complete rest and be stress free! Huh! I am doing my best but I am finding it very difficult. If I dont behave, I will be in hospital quick smart and I dont want that! If I can hang on 4wks, till 30wks, then the steriods have a chance to do their thing and the bubs have a much better chance of survival!
    Anyway, just thought I would fill you in. Take care. Chat soon. Love KIM xoxo
