Today we had two appointments. Our first appointment was an ultrasound appointment and we got to see the boys and find out how they are growing. Olivier is still breech (not a surprise but a bummer) and Mason is in a transverse breech position. They both weigh about 5 lbs 8 oz each. We got a photo of Mason's face, Olivier was just not in a photogenic mood!
Later in the afternoon we met with the ob and we got to hear the heartbeats again. The main topic of conversation was my swelling feet and other joints that are suffering. Given that, the sudden rapid weight gain, and sudden increase in blood pressure, I am now officially on leave. We will be going back next week to see if things have improved. Next week we will be 34 weeks along which is a critical date for development. We are still hopeful that we will make it to November 1st.
On a funny Anna note, she has a new habit. When she doesn't want to eat something you are trying to feed her, she will pretend she is asleep! She will close her eyes and drop her chin to her chest like her neck is limp and she is sound asleep. Silly girl!

First of all - that is too cute that she's figured out she doesn't want to eat something! I hope she doesn't take after her Aunt Michelle too much and will continue eating well!
Sorry to hear that the boys are still breech. I hope that your swelling and blood pressure improve now that you'll be home. I saw a dramatic decrease in swelling from just laying around last week. I hope it helps you too! Only 18ish more days until the 1st!!
Ahhh!!! We'll miss you, but this is so exciting! Take care of those feet of yours :)
