34 Weeks

WE MADE IT!!

I know I've said that a lot at regular intervals throughout this pregnancy, but the 34 week mark really is a huge deal to us! Apart from it being a great, safe gestation, it also means we are now able to go the the hospital of our choice. Our hospital doesn't have a NICU, only a Level 2 Special Care Nursery, so they are unable to accept babies earlier than 34 weeks.

It's a huge relief to have made it this far, and to know that chances are, they will be strong and healthy enough to require little or no assistance if they were to arrive now.

On that note, something tells me we don't have too long now until we meet our boys. It's only 23 days until our 37.5 week c-section goal, but I have a feeling they will come a little earlier than that. Lots of strange aches, pains and a few other signs have been occuring over the past few days. Time will tell I suppose!

We have our next scan scheduled for 35 weeks (I know, I thought the 32 week scan was the last one, but our Obstetrician just wants to monitor their growth)...if we make it to next Tuesday!

I wonder if this will be my last pregnancy photo?!
