Though both girls scored 10 out of 10 again yesterday & weights are rapidly gaining... 5 lbs 14 oz for Hazel & 5 lbs 8 oz for Svea - their mother didn't check out so well.
My blood pressure is high... not high enough to freak out but high enough to start using some more caution than we have before. (I made them check 3 times b/c I didn't believe that I couldn't be perfect!). Plan of action, we will be visiting Abbott tomorrow (Saturday) morning for a re-check & a non-stress test of the babies... potentially some blood work. Depending on how all of that pans out, we may be meeting our little girls tomorrow... or we may be waiting & seeing.
Needless to say, sh@t got a little real yesterday. We packed a bag for the hospital & are now just waiting & seeing what they have to say!
On the positive notes, we've got them to 35 weeks, we've got them north of 5 lbs (if the ultrasound is working in our favor), Dr. Nadeau is on call this weekend so in the event that they do need to arrive, we'll get to have our doc deliver them!
Please remember, Jorgen is the gate keeper of visitors - cell phone 612-709-7242. Like I've mentioned before, we would love to see everybody & have people meet our little girls but there are a lot of factors involved - most importantly, the health of the babies as they may not be able to have visitors right away!
I'll try to update the blog but may be a little busy in the meantime!
