  Hope you're all doing well!  There weren't many of us on here to begin with and there are even less these days! 

  How many weeks are you:  35 tomorrow

  How did your latest Dr's appointments go?  Yesterday's NST, sonogram, and Dr's appt. went well.  I'm 1-2 cm dilated and 50% effaced. 

  How are you feeling?  I feel ok.  I just try to alternate sitting and standing tasks throughout the day.  I wake up every couple hours to pee at night.  My legs/hips/feet are kind of sore and stiff at times.  When I'm in public I try to walk as normal as possible.    Like:  this belly is no big deal everyone!  ha!

  If the babies will have a nursery what is your crib situation like?  2 full size?  Mini?  One now, one later?  We are using one full size (from our other two kids) and one mini.  I really like the mini!  It seems plenty big to me and folds up really easy.  It's currently in the nursery but I might put it 'away' for the first few months and have them share.  The nursery is small and has sliding doors out to the back porch (yes, not your typical bedroom!), which the kids will be coming in and out of to a certain extent.  The nursery is almost done - it's looking really cute.

  Do you plan to do a memory book/baby book?  Yep, I'm all about baby books.  For the twins I just bought 2 that I liked at Buy, Buy, Baby.  I JUST FINISHED my 5 year old's baby book a few days ago.  lol.  Nothing like a deadline!  It was mostly done already. 

  Do you know what the last date will be for delivery/induction (how far your Dr will let you go)?  May 2nd is probably as far as I'll go.  I'll be 38 wks + 3 days.  I don't think I'll make it that far but we'll see.

  How many weeks are you: 33 tomorrow 

  How did your latest Dr's appointments go? Good

  How are you feeling? My hips, back, and sciatic nerve are killing me. 

  If the babies will have a nursery what is your crib situation like?  2 full size?  Mini?  One now, one later? One full size now and a second by July when our little guy turns two and gets his real big boy bed

  Do you plan to do a memory book/baby book? Got matching chevron ones, blue and pink. Our son has a grey one because we didn't find out gender with him.

  Do you know what the last date will be for delivery/induction (how far your Dr will let you go)? May 17 is the latest, that would be 38 + 4

  How many weeks are you: 31w5d

  How did your latest Dr's appointments go? Babies had BPP yesterday at the perinatologist's and passed with flying colors. My last OB appt ended with me going to the hospital, so hopefully next week's is a little less eventful!

  How are you feeling? Useless and dependent, but that's just from the bed rest. It's getting easier though as I get a routine down. Just wish they had a rent-a-roomba so these floors would look better! The swelling has gone way down but back pain is for real! People were just not meant to lie prostrate all day. Just now getting acid reflux - why now?!

  If the babies will have a nursery what is your crib situation like?  2 full size?  Mini?  One now, one later? We have 2 cribs that convert to toddler beds. They were a shower gift from my BFF. Babies will be in a double bassinet - pack and play in our bedroom until we feel comfortable putting them in the nursery upstairs. I've forgotten what it looks like since I can't go up there anymore...

  Do you plan to do a memory book/baby book? I'm the world's worst scrapbooker, but my sister says she's making us a twins brag book like the ones on stuff4multiples.

  Do you know what the last date will be for delivery/induction (how far your Dr will let you go)? Pretty sure I won't have to be induced! They are thinking it would be far-fetched for us to make it to 34 weeks, but we'll see what happens!

  ok... Babies are doing well! I was concerned about their fluid levels but Dr doesn't seem worried... However they're both transverse & laying on top of each other when I'm lying down (weird) AND placenta is now anterior. so don't know how those factors will affect my c section 

  How are you feeling?

  Last weekend, horrible. Could barely walk . But woke up Tuesday morning feeling fine! Must be the way babies are positioned. Usually when one is head down its more difficult for me

  2 cribs that convert to toddler beds. But we have a halo bassinest and a travel Playard in our room for the first little while

  Do you plan to do a memory book/baby book?

  Yes, I have one for both to share.. Was going to get 2 so they can keep them when they're older but I figured they're more for me anyway and i won't have to rewrite tons of things (birth story, family tree, etc.) milestones I figure I can squeeze two in one line
