Hi folks -
I'll be 32 weeks pregnant with the girls this coming Sunday, and am now gearing up for 34 weeks, or right around the Equinox. 32 was a MAJOR milestone for me, and 34 is no different, but with my pain levels (and resultant narcotics use) doubling every few days, two more weeks sounds like an eternity.
Ah well. The girls should be about 4.5 lbs by this time next week, and every day I make it though makes their chances of being 100% A-ok that much better, so I am just taking it one day at a time, and using every trick in the book to not go crazy with it all.
That all said, I have been 1 cm dilated for a week and a half, and we never know when this show is going to get on the road all by itself. Trouble with that is that both girls are lying sideways across my uterus (stacked like cordwood!) so I CAN'T have them vaginally at this point, unless they both move A LOT.
Anyway, thanks for the ongoing support - I really appreciate you all! More news when two criteria are met: a) that I have any new news to impart, and b) when I have the brain, body and presence of mind to actually report any of it at the same time.
Enjoy! Spring is almost here!

So glad to hear you are all hanging in there. Be well, and know that positive vibes are coming your way.
Susan, this is great news to read this morning! Will check back in 2 weeks! Sending you soothing and relaxing vibes.
think relaxing thoughts, lie in bed (on your left side, of course) drinking lots of water and GESTATING! I am sending prayers and good thoughts your way!
My little girl started trying to excape the womb at 20 weeks, but I held her in until 37 weeks. And now she is almost 14 and only 1/2" shorter than I am. And smarter than I can ever hope to be!
