OB Appointment

Everything still looking good.  

Weight was 151, blood pressure was awsome, both babies are head down right now!  My OB asked if I was having any contractions and I said "no".  She seemed shocked by that, her words were "Really?  Wow"  

At 32 weeks she said they will run out of room to change position so whatever position they are in at that time will most likely determine how we deliver.   She said in 3 weeks we can start discussing if I will need a c-section or not.   Stay right where you are girls!!!   Both heads down is perfect!   Even if Emily were to go breech and Mandy stayed head down we would still do a normal delivery.   Emily is smaller than Mandy so that has to stay that way and we would deliver Mandy and then do a breech extraction on Emily.  This is where my doctor reaches in, grabs the feet and pulls her out.  Sounds pleasent right?    They only do breech extraction on twins and not singeltons because with twins the first baby would "pave the way" for the second baby so the doctor is really just pulling the second baby out.  

So good appointment and very uneventful.   Thats a good thing!
