30 Weeks

Today marks 30 weeks!!! Another big milestone. It also means that my hospital imprisonment is at least half way over. I've been here 4 weeks and 4 days and if we make it all the way to the 34 week mark, I only have 4 weeks, plus a few days for c-section recovery time left!

This is what is left of my countdown chain to 32 weeks. Only 14 days to go. I guess if we make it to the end, I'll have to add some links.

We are all doing well. Ultrasound yesterday once again showed good heart rates, good movement, good fluid and good blood flow through umbilical cords. Tomorrow they will do growth measurements again, so I will keep you updated. I'm not sure they are going to be able to measure growth on Baby Girl "A" because she is buried behind her brothers. Poor thing. Maybe I will have names for you tomorrow too! Clint said we would decide by 30 weeks, so hopefully we will have name number four by tonight!

I have had a significant increase in swelling in the last couple of days in my legs, hands and face. I also had a significant increase in weight gain last week, but swelling is down today. They did labwork today to check for warning signs of pre-eclampsia and everything came back a-okay. My protein is a little elevated, but no more than last week. Still just something to watch, not something to be concerned about yet. Basically nothing new to report which is a good thing!

For those who have been asking, here is my most recent belly picture. Try to overlook the puffy, fat face (can't wait to have my face back when this is all over). 29 weeks and 4 days
