  how many weeks are you? 28 tomorrow
  
  anything new going on with the babies?  Not really.  Last week's sonogram showed A was head down and B was breech.  They had moved positions - now side by side (had always been transverse, lo, hi).  I think I'm able to tell where their butts are - always the biggest, firmest part. 
  
  what's your biggest concern right now?  Making it through the next couple weeks.  I'm co-chair of the school auction and it's in 2 weeks.  Can't wait for that to be over!  So much work.  Super fun event but too bad I can't drink this year!  I'm getting more run-down.  I really have to make sure I sit and take breaks.  I'm such an on-the-go person but I've had to slow down.
  
  is your nursery ready yet? Not even close either!  Our soon-to-be-nursery is currently the office and next week the internet modem and phone is getting moved to another part of the house so that'll be good.  The changing table/dresser should also arrive by next week so setting that up will feel like an accomplishment.  We have already moved several things out of the room (books, file cabinets, etc). 

  
  do you have a theme? nope.  since our nursery is a sunroom right off of the dining room w/French doors and is visible from the living room and kitchen we are mainly trying to make it look tasteful to coordinate with the rest of the house.  In a couple years we are adding on to our house (that we just bought last May) so this will only be a nursery for a couple years then they'll have a 'real' bedroom (with a closet!).  I'm going to have to get real creative with how to store things.  2 walls are windows, one wall has sliding glass doors to a porch and one wall has French doors, so there's hardly any wall space!  It's gonna be a cute room though.

  how many weeks are you? 24w5d
  
  anything new going on with the babies? As of ultrasound yesterday, babies went from being transverse to side by side, head down. They are able to tell which one is which by size. The size gap closed a bit since last ultrasound.
  
  whats your biggest concern right now? Preterm labor even though I don't show any warning signs of it. Mirroring @MrsKubley concern about one vaginal birth and one c-section... the worst of both worlds! 
  
  is your nursery ready yet? Nope. I've been making things, but we have to actually move into our new house first! We have our shower in a couple weeks and should be able to fill out the nursery. 
  
  Theme?  Robots! (Yes, for girls) mint green and poppy red.

  I also have been thinking about what a bummer it would be to deliver both vaginally AND have surgery.  I plan on talking to my Dr. more about this next week, but I'm kind of thinking that if Baby A is head down and ready to go I'll try to deliver vaginally even if baby B isn't in as favorable of positions.  The 2nd baby can move into place once their sibling is out of the way right?  And there's a little bit of 'maneuvering' that the Dr can do to help B get in position, right?  I need more education on this, but that's what I'm thinking.  After already giving birth twice, I recovered easily after both and these twins are probably not going to be larger than their older sibs.  I never had to sit on a boppy or anything like that afterwards.  So..........we shall see!

  how many weeks are you? 28wk5days
  
  anything new going on with the babies? He is going good and strong. As of yesterday he was 2 lbs 15 oz and 15 inches long. He won't move for anyone but me and I love that I get those special moments just me and my baby boy. 
  
  whats your biggest concern right now? my doctor started talking about yesterday that she is going to take my little man a week to 2 weeks early because of my blood pressure (I have white coat  syndrome).
  
  is your nursery ready yet? Nope. We are actually starting on the room this next week since our little guy will be here in 9 weeks and 4 weeks till our baby shower . 
  
  Theme?  Superman/ DC comics

  how many weeks are you? 29+4
  
  anything new going on with the babies? nope not since last week. Really seeing their movements on the outside now. 
  
  whats your biggest concern right now? Probably the blood tests I need to get tomorrow for cholestasis of pregnancy. I should stay far away from Dr. Google but it has me in a bit of a panic. Hoping everything turns out ok. Otherwise just the babies being ok and not needing much NICU time if any. And yes having to have a c section after vaginal birth would be the suck. 
  
  is your nursery ready yet? Not even close
  
  do you have a theme? Not really, just doing gray and pink with some random Tiffany blue ish accents. Very girly but still kind of modern
