Been feeling a lot of movement the past two days, which I love!
Next appt is growth scan on Dec 4th... We should find out the sex then.
I live in Denver, CO where we say, " if you don't like the weather, just wait 5 min." Right now it's cold and lightly snowing.

Clear blue skies but bitter cold. There are ice chunks floating down the river in my back yard. We had a dusting of snow a few days ago. Gotta love New England!

Any updates? - DW is "super tired" and can feel little contractions on a regular basis. Last week MFM said 37w (Christmas week, yikes) is the predicted time for delivery. DW had a contraction on the table for the sono. Both babies are currently feet down. She let me know today that she feels like they may have "dropped" as her belly rests on her thighs when she sits down.
When is your next appt? - OB appt on 11/27, MFM on 12/4.
QOTW : What is the weather like where you are? - Freakin' cold. Lows are in the 20s this week it looks like. Had the first flurry of snow on Saturday night, and there's a Winter Weather advisory for tomorrow.
We will be taking our last "out of town" trip before the babies are born to visit my family for Thanksgiving. They are just over an hour away.

OB appointment tomorrow, MFM Dec 17.
QOTW :
Team/ Type (ex blue di/di) purple di/di
Any updates? Not too much - I still feel good other than leg cramps and hip pain while sleeping. Had our childbirth class/hospital tour this weekend - so I am feeling much more confident with that. Although I am now terrified of both a vaginal birth and a c-section! It did make me want to start packing my hospital bag though.
When is your next appt? I have an ob appt on 12/5 - so its weird to not have any appts this week
QOTW : What is the weather like where you are? COLD and snow! My work actually let me start parking right next to the bldg - to avoid any chance of falling during the winter months - so that is really nice when its freezing too.

Far Along: 34w3
Team/ Type: purple
Updates: The nursery and basement remodel are officially complete! It feels so great to finally have the house in order. This week I am frantically trying to get everything at work ready for my maternity leave in case the babies come at the "average" 35 week mark or I am just too dang uncomfortable to even attempt to come in anymore.
After my doctor scaring the crap out of me for so long regarding bed rest and super preemie babies, I feel so lucky to have made it this far and be doing so well. Granted, just about every part of my body is uncomfortable and it is hard to move around (DH had to help me out of the bathtub last night) but I honestly expected it to be worse. However, I may have just jinxed myself since I still have 3.5 weeks before I am induced on Dec. 19th at 38 weeks if they don't come on their own before then. But I have a feeling they will be coming fairly soon because I am experiencing quite a bit of pressure in my pelvis, which is new.
Next appt? On Wednesday
QOTD: @whitehousem - I am also in Denver! The weather is fairly cloudy (unusual for a place that gets 300 days of sun a year) and cold. Glad we are staying in town for Thanksgiving because it looks like a lot of the country is dealing with some nasty weather. Safe travels everyone!
Snowing a bit, but it should be raining 20 minutes from now, then probably sunny in an hour. Ahh, Chicago!
No periods due to 17 years of ballet and distance running after college. Zero response to 2 months of Clomid, little response to Letrozole. IUI left with 9 cysts = too many viable eggs due to age. On to IVF. Low dose of all meds still produced 37 mature eggs 12.6.11. Froze due to overstimulation.
FET #1.1 1.22.12 BFN. FET #1.2 2.22.12=GRACE! (and a vanishing twin).
Grace Katherine born 10.25.12 @ 36w6w 6#14oz 19.5".
FET #1.3 3.2013 BFN FET#1.4 4.2013 BFN. Never tried a fresh transfer. Let's try, despite 10 still frozen.
ER 6.26.13 27 mature eggs, slight overstim. ET 7.1.13 ectopic, FET 2.1 9.10.14 TRIPLETS!!
Boys born 3.18.14 @ 29w5d. Andrew Jack 3#6oz 16", Grant Robert 3#9oz 16", Charles Phillip 3#7oz 17".
@stephanie2167 you're in the home stretch girl!

I love it!

Our twins born and died on August 2, 2010 (at 22w5d) due to Premature birth. They were only in our arms for a little while, but they will be in our hearts forever.
25 weeks today
We'll be admitted to the hospital on Monday @ 26 weeks for close monitoring. Hospital bed rest here we come. Twin A is 1lb 2 oz in the 17th percentile. Twin B is 1lb 14 oz in the 56th percentile. Soooo we need to keep a closer eye on the little one. I'll be posting some questions in a minute. Staying positive and am looking forward to Thanksgiving with my family.
The weather here in southern NH is freezing and a few snow showers have happened. There's a light dusting It's kinda nice.
Team/ Type (ex blue di/di) blue di/di
Any updates? My OB is pretty upset that I haven't been scheduled yet for my c-section. The last time I went to my MFM I saw someone I had never seen before and I hope I don't see her again. I was diagnosed with a complete previa a while back and after they checked the growth of the babies I asked the tech if he was able to see my placenta and cervix and he said one of the babies head was in the way. When the MFM came in she said the boys looked great and I said don't you want to do a vaginal ultrasound to look at my placenta. She hesitated and then was like its not really necessary its not like they are scheduling you for your c-section yet. I said well yeah they are I'm already 30 weeks. Even after the vaginal ultrasound she said everything looks great but I still recommend a c-section and walked out. Needless to say her report was even more confusing so my OB gave me a list of questions to hand to them and she is also contacting them. When I see my OB after the ultrasound on Dec 3rd we will definitely have a plan and a c-section date.
When is your next appt? I had an appointment yesterday with my OB. I have an ultrasound Dec 2nd and my next OB appointment is Dec 3rd.
QOTW : What is the weather like where you are? The weather here in Charlotte, NC has been rainy and chilly but not unbearable. I have to admit with how warm I have been the cooler weather feels refreshing to me!
Team? Pink all the way!! di/di twin girls!
Any changes? No more laying on my belly :-( Side sleeping only.
The weather is cold and snowy. We have about 6 inches and it's not supposed to stop until tomorrow. Yay!
Team/ Type (ex blue di/di) Team Pink di/di
Any updates? Just found out today that we are Team Pink! Both babies measurements were great. Finally getting a little relief from nausea but it's now bring on the heartburn!
When is your next appt? MFM Dec 3rd
QOTQ: heavy rain (up to 80mm expected by morning) and high winds. Yuck!
Team/Type: Team Green, di/di
Any updates: I've been off work for 2 weeks because of a shortening cervix, but I'm feeling great which makes it harder to take it easy (although I'm trying to behave myself!).
When is your next appointment: tomorrow I have an U/S and an OB appointment to follow up and see if my cervix is getting thinner. If so, I might find myself in the hospital - not looking forward to that!
QOTW: It's below freezing here, and last week we got nearly 2 feet of snow over the weekend! At least the main roads have mostly been cleared at this point!!
