Week 31

Yeah, I'm still not creative with my entry titles...

So here we are at week 31 and I survived the heat last week! Phew! Much better today and hopefully it'll stay that way for a little while. We had our last multiples class at the hospital this week and got to tour the birthing suites. It looks like we'll have wireless internet in our room, so we'll see about taking our laptop so we can email when the twins arrive. Though I'm not sure the laptop will be high on our list of things to pack when I'm in labor, so I make no guarantees. = )

More belly growth and strong foot movements by the babies. Man, they sure make a ruckus when I'm sitting in the car. We're not sure if that's because they like it or not, but it certainly makes them go nuts in my belly.

We have appointments with the lactation consultant at the hospital and one of the midwives in my OB/GYN's group to make sure we're all set for breastfeeding and to see about having a midwife on the delivery team since we are still hoping for an unmedicated birth for both babies. The appt's aren't until week 32, so it'll be a little while before I can report in on how they went. Apparently, since the midwife is directly affiliated with the hospital (rather than a birth center like our previous one) there is a chance she will be able to attend the birth. I'm excited at the thought, but we have to meet with her first to see what the options are. And we still have 4 more weeks of our Bradley classes, so we're ironing out the birth plan at this point.
