I had an ultrasound yesterday to measure the boys' growth & check everything. They are doing well. They are both laying in there sideways/transverse. They are very active when I'm laying down. Other than that, I feel them moving sometimes. Everything looked good as far as I could tell. Their guesstimated weights are: Baby A: 4 lbs. 13 oz. and Baby B: 4 lbs. 9 oz. I'm 32 1/2 weeks along now and have about 4 weeks to go until the c-section, so I'm not sure what to expect for birth weights. I was just hoping for over 5 lbs. Hopefully they will be there soon!
I also have been feeling the effects of being pregnant in the spring/summer this time. (Emma was born in January). My ankles and feet feel like they have jelly in them. Weird!
But I will also be kind of sad about not being pregnant anymore when the boys are born. I don't enjoy the physical part of being pregnant, but I love feeling the babies move inside and just feeling kind of special being pregnant....not that you're not special when you're not pregnant...do you know what I mean? I've been taking advantage of the "expecting mothers" parking spots this time. Mostly because I can't walk too far without feeling tired.
Emma has been spending more time in front of the computer doing 2 of her latest favorite things: Watching Michael W. Smith's "Mighty to Save" on Y.ou Tu.be and looking at pictures of her cousins. If I had a dime for every time she said "I want to look at pictures"...
Other than that, I just mostly sit on the couch with my feet up. We have the boys' room ready. I have pictures, I just need to get them off the camera!!!

Oh, thanks so much for the update! I think of you/pray for you often & have been wondering. And yes, I remember clearly how much I missed the baby that was inside once the boys were born. There's nothing like that feeling in the whole world -- helps with some of the other not-so-fun parts of pregnancy. Love to you all...aunt deb
If I could be of any validation for you - you look great for carrying twins. And you are doing the best you can. :)
I too cherish all these pregnancy feelings; the wiggles, the kicks, the various side effects. But I'm just so glad that I was able to experience them all. And I know you feel the same.
