Athena - I've heard great things about the Great Wolf Lodge - there is one in Williamsburg, VA. I hope you had a great time! As far as Disney - we are planning on going back next summer. I loved Animal Kingdom and MGM. I hope you have a blast.
Michelle - I hope everything goes smoothly with the little ones. Sounds like the doctor is keeping a close eye on you and those sweet babies. I'm thinking of you and those babies...
I'm going on 33 weeks this Friday - OMG that seems way too fast. I'm starting to get a bit of swelling in my feet and hands too. Hard to believe that in few months we will all be holding our babies. WOW - seems like we all just got started!
We are over our posting limit so I'm gonna start #10 for us.

Kelli, Im sure everything is ok... you probably just have a big boy in there! I will be waiting to see what the ultrasound says Monday. Try not to worry too much.
I love the names, guys... isnt if fun to come up with new names?
We had our 26.5 week appointment yesterday.... we had growth ultrasounds and had a little scare...
Annabelle (Baby A) is measuring three days ahead of her actual due date... she weighs about 2lbs 3 oz. Everything looks great with her, good heartbeat, the cord looks great.
Jake (Baby B) is measuring almost three weeks ahead of schedule... he weighs 3 lbs 3 oz. He looks good but the doctor is very concerned with how big her is. We had a long talk, and they do not think it is anything developemntal (no downs, etc), but she is very concerned of the size difference in the two. usually, when there is twin discordance, it is because one of the twins is so much smaller, not so much bigger. They want me to start coming in twice a week for fetal monitoring, stress tests and biophysical ultrasounds for the babies, starting next week. I am kinda scared, but she assured me that they would monitor and keep a close eye on things.
The main concern right now is if he continues to grow at this rate, that his placenta may not be able to keep up, but we will keep an eye on it.
I am off work today, so we are putzing around, gonna go try to find an ottoman for the glider. Hope everyone has a great day Michelle

Kelli - I hope everything goes OK for you. I agree maybe a big baby or extra fluid or like what happened to me it's just harder to get an accurate measurement from the outside. Let us know how it goes..
Lori - I love the name Karley but I don't think I'm too partial since I'm going with Carley too! I LOVE IT!!!

I have been having braxton hicks since 21 weeks. They tell me its b/c it is my 4th baby I am carrying. No muscles left! My OB won't induce until 39 weeks for leagal reasons. I wish they would take me at 38 weeks b/c my daughters 13th birthday is 2 days after my scheduled c-section. My doctor doesn't do another u/s after the 20 week U/S if the 28 week blood work comes back normal (which it did). Boy, would I love to see her again! I'm glad things are going well with everyone. I don't post too much but I read all the time. Lori

Hello everyone! Had appt today, I am measuring 35 instead of 27 and the dr is concerned enough to schedule an u/s. She told me not to worry and so that is what I'm trying to do. Said extra fluid, larger placenta, or the baby. My appt is next Monday at 230. I hope everything is ok. I've made is so far! Take care everyone, Kelli
We are getting ready for yet another birthday, April 12th Braden my youngest will be 6!
The weather here is finally stayin Sunny but it is still so chilly outside.
Tanya and Juanita Thank you for your advice. DMIL still hasn't even called us. We're just letting her do what she needs to do and when she is ready to call she will. As far as our "situation" I let my sister know what was going on and she said she'd take care of it and get it all smoothed out! So I'm trying my hardest to just let it roll off my shoulders and let my sister handle it. I did let her know that DMIL is planning it and to just reiterate to her that they are merely there for help....
Hope everyone is having a good week! Take care all and babies!!!
How is everyone? Any new updates? News? How is everyone feeling?
They changed my due date to May 21st so besides that nothing new. I'm 33 weeks this Friday..this is moving WAY TOO QUICKLY!!
In other news my cousin called this morning and she got a BFP. This will make #6 for her! I was heading up to see her this month - she was giving me her swing and jumparoo but now she's going to need them since she's due Dec 1st. LOL!

Karen I know what you are going through. I kind of have the same situation with my MIL's family & mother. My DH aunt (whom I'm not really close to at all) was actually the one who decided to plan a shower for me without really checking with me first. It was really kind of bizzar I live really close to MIL but she really is not having anything to do with the planning not that she doesn't want to its just that she says my DH aunt really wants to do this. DH aunt planned the day time where it was going to be before I even new about it. My mother & her side of the family live 40mins away & I was really nervous about telling my mom that DH aunt had planned this whole thing already I didn't want DH side of the family mad @ me thinking I was ungrateful (this is thier 1st grandchild) & I didn't want my mother to be upset because they didn't include her in the planning. My mother's side of the family is pretty big & DH aunt said the place that we are having it at (DMIL friends house) is not that big so basically the guest list would have to be shorten. My mother & grandmother pretty much said they didn't think that they wanted my side of the family there & that they would just plan thier own & my MIL could go if she wanted to. I told my MIL that they are just going to have a seperate one because of the room isssue to kind of tip toe around the real reason. DH aunt said that my mother & grandmother should still come anyways I didn't want to tell her they didn't think that they were really welcome & that they thought it was pretty much for DH family. So I'm just letting DH aunt & friends plan one & make up some excuse why my mom & grandmother don't come and let my mom, aunt & SIL plan one of thier own. Hopefully everything will work out. What can you do? Just let them work it out themselves. Karen I would just not talk about it with MIL unless she brings it up. Good Luck.
