I had a perinatologist appt yesterday. I was lectured about the weight loss. She was telling me that apparently, redheads like to bleed, and with the weight loss, will come anemia. Add that to my c-section, and I should apparently be force-feeding myself. I did point out that I am on iron pills, so she said I might be okay.
So there I am, 32 weeks with twins, and my fundus measurement was only 34 weeks. Not sure what’s up with that. I do know that both heads are at opposite sides of me. Maybe that makes a difference. Measureing only two weeks ahead with twins doesn’t seem anywhere near enough. She said that I am small-looking for twins. They were measuring in the 83 percentile at the last ultrasound. I guess I have to wait for Monday to see where they are now.
It’s sorta funny, because the way I’m carrying is all out front. I can’t get XL shorts to fit over my belly. I walk around with a permanent wedgie, because I have to pull the pants up enough to where they aren’t falling down that there is no fabric left in back. If I face you head on, the widest part of me is my hips. Anyone who knows me, knows that I don’t have any hips. I swear, it truly looks as though I just picked a basketball off the ground and stuck it under my shirt.
Anywho, our current timeline is:
Closing on new house one week from today
Moving into new house one week from tomorrow
Ultrasound for measurements on Monday
Scheduled c-section 6 weeks from tomorrow
