I had an ultrasound and a doctor's appointment today. Each baby is weighing over a pound...YAY!! They are growing well. Caroline and Sarah do both have 2 vessel cords. Dr. Jimerson is sending me to OU Medical to have a specialist take a second look at them. The 2 vessel cord can mean several things, like lower birth weight and cardiac problems. However, it is not evident in either girl right now. Joey and I believe that everything will be fine.
I am still resting a bunch and am so grateful that it is summer. It has really helped slow me down. Dr. Jimerson is very pleased that I am at 24 weeks without any problems. My only complaints are heartburn, being HOT!!, and uncomfortable. I am thankful that these are my only problems!
I am waiting for a phonecall with my appointment time for OU...It will be within the next 2 weeks.

23 weeks
Well, another week has passed. I went to see Dr. Jimerson last week. I measured at 32 weeks, if I were only having one baby. GOODNESS! I got my pre-admit packet for the hospital, just in case. The babies are moving around a lot! It is so different because there is constant movement. :)
Next week, I have my gestational diabetes test and another ultrasound. I am hoping that they are each over a pound and are growing perfectly. Dr. Jimerson and I talked last Tuesday and said that I am now at the risk factor of labor could start anytime. Of course, if it did start at this point, we would try to stop it. No bedrest yet but I am trying really hard to take it easy.
We have made progress on the nursery. The walls are painted, new carpet is in, and cribs are up. It is coming together slowly. But, I am really excited to see it all complete.

AWWW, summer time! Things have settled down at the Slate house for a little while. School is out so we aren't waking to alarms, going to dance and soccer. Instead, our days are filled with physical therapy appointments, OB appointments, and going to the pool. Much more my speed, these days.
It is hard to believe that I am already at 22 weeks. The time is going by quickly. For those of you who don't know, we are having 2 girls and a boy!! That's right...we will have 4 daughters and 1 son! Joey is definitely feeling outnumbered. I see lots of father/son weekends in our future!
At my last ultrasound 2 weeks ago, all 3 babies were growing well and right on track. What a blessing! I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow and then another ultrasound in 2 weeks.
