Happpier times!

The girls moved around a bit and I am feeling less tired.  Saturday and Sunday I had a hard time just standing up and walking to the next room.  But yesterday and today I have been back to able to go from floor to floor and room to room as long as I don't abuse it.  I am so glad that my mom is in town to help with Turi and the household things.  I don't know where I would be without the help!

We also had a good visit with our OBGYN today.  He is much more reasonable, much less jerklike, and presents options that make more sense to Thom and I than our perinatologist did last week.  He feels that taking the babies out at 36-37 weeks is too early and we unnecessarily risk them being underdeveloped.  He is proposing 38 weeks as the end date and much more positive and encouraging about the ability of Apple to turn around and the possibility of a natural birth.  We also have two more visits with him before the end date of August 6th so we have more time to monitor the girls position and see how the end is progressing.

So we are progressing well towards having two wonderful new girls in the family.  We will just have to be a little more patient and calm when we get comments from people about what we should or shouldn't be doing and how ready to pop I am and other comments related to the birth and care of the twins.  (I am getting a little cranky and sensitive I admit, I try to remain calm).  The girls will come when it is time!
