About me: my OB is referring me to an orthopedic surgeon to get a cortisone shot in my wrist for my carpal tunnel syndrome. It has gotten much worse this week, and it's borderline unbearable. During the day my hand just feels weak, tingly, and numb -- I can handle that. But in the middle of the night, I wake up in excruciating pain. And that's what is getting harder to deal with. I'm hoping the appointment is quick (Monday?) and effective!
Also, I had my doctor measure my belly, just out of curiosity. I am measuring 39 weeks! It's quite a change to be measuring big during a pregnancy, instead of small the way I was with CC. Of course there are two babies now, so that's to be expected!
About the babies: they are actually big for their age! Baby A measured a week ahead of schedule, and Baby B measured 5 days ahead. Good news on both counts. The weight estimates were 3 pounds 8 ounces for Baby A, and 3 pounds 4 ounces for Baby B.
Baby B was crunched up into a little ball on the lower left side, head up (breech). Baby A was stretched out along the right side, head down, in an L shape with his/her legs over Baby B's head. So maybe all the movement I've been feeling on the left side hasn't been Baby B after all?
We were able to get several good 3D images of Baby B, who was cooperative despite being so crowded. Baby A, on the other hand, was a little stinker and didn't let us get any pictures!
