28 Weeks

What a difference a week makes! So I am officially on Disability. No more working for this girl. Well, not for a while anyways. I got one of my "episodes" at work on monday. Dizzy like crazy, thank god i didn't hurl. I went home in car service and called my doc who said that he thought it's about time I stop working, it's not worth the chance of one of these episodes happening on the subway or at some other really bad moment. So here I am at home. It's quite nice. I had another "episode" on wednesday night, this one did involve puking. Fun stuff. I also came up with a lovely "PUPS" rash on my stomach which has since gotten worse. It's another "one of those things" that can happen in pregnancy, and basically there is nothing they can do about it. Fun stuff. I'm so lucky. I get all the fun stuff. So I had my scheduled doc's appt. yesterday. The girls are still 5 ounces apart. They are weighing in at 2 lbs and 2 lbs 5 ounces. They both look great, Lily is still head down and Mia has her butt in Lily's face again, she's butt down. And the big news is, WE HAVE A BIRTHDAY!! I will be having my scheduled C section on Tuesday November 14th. That's 35 weeks, 6 weeks from now! The doc feels that I won't make it to 37 weeks anyways, and he'd rather me have them in a controlled setting that to have me go into labor and have to have an emergency c section. They are going to give me steroid injections in 3 weeks to help mature the girls lungs. Also, we are closing on the co op either at the end of next week or the beginning of the following week. By the 10th at the latest. Good news since we've only got 6 weeks till the girls join us!!!

That's all for now, time to make a PB and Fluff sandwich and watch days...
