Pregnancy Progress ~ 38 Weeks

Holy Cow! I'm 38 weeks pregnant with twins!!!!! Sometimes I feel like it too. My sono today went great, not a whole lot of room in there. The babies were pretty squished. It just blew my mind how big they really are when she would move the sensor over my tummy and I'd see a head, then she'd keep going and going then I'd see their chest, then she'd keep going and we'd finally get to the legs way over there. They are estimating that Bernadette is weighing in at 7 lbs 4 oz and Timothy is 7 lbs 2 oz. Wow, over 14 lbs of baby, not including all the placentas, fluids and so forth. It will be interesting to see how accurate the sono has been. I am guessing (based on Andrew's birth weight and that these babies will be a "week early") that they will be right around 7 lbs. I have gained about 6lbs at this point give or take. I didn't weigh myself on my scale which is what I have been going by. The only other "new/different" thing from the last post is that my bellybutton is officially gone. It isn't an outie, but just flat. I think it did pretty good staying an inie for this long. When Andrew saw it yesterday he told me "you bellybutton looks disgusting." and I have to agree with him. Well, maybe the babies will come on Sunday and have a Fourth of July birthday. If not, then I am pretty sure we will make it to Wednesday and 39 weeks! I will post another picture of me before I go into deliver in a few days.
