Thirty, Flirty, & Thriving.

As the 13 Going On 30 reference may suggest, I have finally made it past the 30 week mark of this pregnancy! I'm currently in my 31st week and I feel great! According to my last appointment, the babies are a little over 3.5 pounds each giving them a combined weight of over 7 pounds! That is a normal-sized baby right there, so it's no wonder I look as though I'm about to go into labor at any second. I have also gained 5 pounds of my own weight in the last month, which I'm pretty proud of. Total, I have gained 25 pounds since being pregnant with these twins, and that's not bad!

In other news, Kurt and I have decided to schedule a C-section in late March (around 37 weeks) since it is the safest option for this type of twin pregnancy. Natural birth comes with lots of complications when two babies are linked by one placenta, so we feel this is the best route for us.

We are really excited for what the coming six weeks have in store! We can't wait until these baby girls are finally here!

Here are some of my weekly pictures from the last ten weeks:
