Time is just really really starting to fly. I suppose the fact that we have been so busy help that. 
Our house is now on the market and viewings have started. Wish us luck!
I had another regular OB appt. the other day and I have now gained right about 35 lbs. I think a little of that is swelling which I have started to do if I move around too much and late at night. It usually goes down by morning and the process starts all over.
My blood pressure was a little higher than normal for me at 120/80. I know that is perfect for an adult but my bp is usually like 90/50 or something like that. I cannot remember exactly. My urine is still good and the nurse checked me for all the signs of pre-e and it looked like I am still in the clear.
I have another cervical check ultrasound on Monday, so I can’t wait to see what is going on there now. Hopefully it has not moved too much. I will update after.

Let’s see, what all have I missed writing about.
After my hospital visit I posted about last, I got another check a week later to see what my cervix was up to. It was down a tad more to 2.4cm, but nothing that worried the peri too much.
I also had an OB appt. the next day and everything looked good. My blood pressure is still good, I had gained a couple of pounds, and the boys heartbeats sounded good. And get this, at 28 weeks 4 days, my stomach measured 39 weeks!!!! Wowee!!!
I knew I was big, but dang.
Then this past Monday, I had my 29 week level II ultrasound and everything looked pretty good! Baby A is weighing in at around 2 lbs 15 oz, but the tech said that is a +/- because he kept moving when she was trying to measure his tummy. Smile His heartrate is 136. Baby B is a little fatty weighing in at 3 lbs 5 oz! His heartrate is 125.
My cervix is still holding pretty strong. It is just a tad shorter than last week at 2.3cm. The peri says we will check it once more in 2 weeks, to make us both feel better, then we will leave it alone. I am keeping myself on restricted activity. Basically I only do what I need to do, and when I am home I don’t do much except lay down. I am working 3 days a week from home now, and the other 2 in the office. I am going to try that for the next 2 weeks, then I may cut down to working only 3 days a week from home and using the other 2 days as vacation. Hubby has been wonderful waiting on me hand and foot.
I go back in 4 weeks for another level II.
I cannot believe I have made it this far doing so good! YAYYYYYY. (I was on bedrest at 26 weeks with my girls with a cervix down to 1.7cm)
I had my baby shower on Saturday that my 2 wonderful friends threw for me. It turned out really good. We got a lot of cute clothes for the boys. We do have a few things that we will have to return. And truthfully, we did not get what we really need from our registry, but we got some gift cards, etc. so that will help. Now it’s time to go shopping!!
