False Alarm #6

Everything went well today at the clinic... girls passed their biophysical profiles, weighed in at 6 lbs, 10 oz & 6 lbs, 9 oz (plus or minus a pound), bloodwork all came back fine... AND THEN... they took my BP & it was high.  We waited around, it was still high & so they sent us in to Abbott for additional monitoring.
This is what 12+ lbs of baby looks like!

I'll tell you what an interesting ride is.  Driving to Abbott at 5pm on a Thursday - I don't recommend it but if you're bored or feeling bad about yourself, its an instant confidence booster!
This is what you get in the lobby of the Maternal Assessment Center!

Long story short, BP came down and so they said "go home".  Going back in Sunday for more watching, bloodwork and general awesomeness!

If all goes well on Sunday, we'll be seen at the clinic for one last biophysical profile (since those are only "good" for a week & our c-section isn't until Friday!) and then we'll go in on Friday for the big day!

So, in the meantime, the girls & I will be on bedrest, Jorgen will continue waiting on us hand and foot and we'll keep cooking these little babies, preparing them for all of the fun we have in store for them!

Updates as they come!
