Ultrasound

I had another ultrasound today. Baby boy is measuring 4 pounds 3 ounces (23rd percentile). Baby girl is measuring 4 pounds 13 ounces (above 50th percentile). I'm carrying around 9 pounds of baby. I was also put on bed rest today. My cervix went from 36mm (3.6cm) to 22mm (2.2cm) in 4 weeks. Which explains why I lost a little of my mucus plug on Saturday. That means if I don't lay around, I have a 25% chance of the babies coming in the next 2 weeks. I will be 33 weeks on Thursday (2 days). My Dr. said I'm probably 1cm dilated, but didn't want to check because he didn't want to stir anything up. I get my Strep B test next time I go in 2 weeks and will check how far I'm dilated then. He doesn't want to wait any later than that. He said he doesn't see me making it to 38 weeks. Dr. wants to see me weekly after my appointment in 2 weeks. I had my first NST (non stress test). I have them every Tuesday and Friday now. Holy cow! The babies are going to be here before we know it. Baby boy is still head down pushing on my cervix making my pelvic area hurt. Baby girl is transverse up in my ribs. Now I know why I complain to Shawn daily about pelvic pressure and pain...  Too bad the bigger baby is going to come out second.  Assuming she flips correctly once brother comes out and I don't end up needed a c-section for her...
