Today I reached the 35 week mark of this twin pregnancy. It is a HUGE milestone for me because it means that the babies will likely not need any NICU time when they are born. Since the only NICU is on Oahu, it also means that I will be able to have the babies at home in Hilo instead of needing to be medevaced to Oahu if the babies come early.
Also, it means that our babies are now about five pounds each. If they stay in until March 18th as planned, they should be close to six pounds each!! I can feel every ounce of their tiny bodies moving in me and their strong limbs as they kick and squirm. It is getting harder and harder for them to move in my tummy but they still manage to keep me up sometimes!
We are SO excited for our girls to arrive!! My family has been working like crazy to prepare for their arrival :)
The girls are so blessed to have been given so many awesome things from many different people so we have been washing, disinfecting, and putting things together for them. With almost a week left until they are born, we still have so much to do!
Kurt and I are so excited to meet our daughters in just 9 short days!
