26 weeks, 6 days

I am now back to work for three weeks.  I am about to finish week 2.

My feet are still swollen and I have developed carpal tunnel about a week ago.  I have only gained 3lbs since the last posting.  I have gained a total of 35 lbs.

On Tuesday I went to the OB.  I was measuring 36 weeks and found out that according to research, there are no advantages for going over 33 weeks.  I think there are, like weight gain.  The doctor says the lungs are developed among the triplets.

Yesterday I started having contractions.  I think it was from dehydration.  Today I had a few more.  I can't wait to be home and just rest.

August 10, 2011 24 Weeks, 6 Days

I am doing well.  Last week the pregnancy caught up with me.  I mean I noticed swelling of my feet and ankles at the end of the day and pain in my feet after standing for 15 minutes or more.  So far I have gone from 127lbs to 159 today, not bad.

The new carpet should be here today so we can begin putting the room together.  All of the babies are doing well.  Even though I can't wait to see and meet them I know I am the best incubator!
