Baby's size: Cantaloupes, 18 inches long weighing about 4 3/4lbs.
Baby's Development: Babies are building those fat layers which will help them regulate temperature once born. Their nervous system is maturing and lungs are continuing to develop. We have had a total of 4 steroid shots over the last several weeks so they should have a jump on things.
Gender: It has been confirmed, (2) girls, Ali & Sadie and (1) boy, Ray.
Weight gain: 69 lbs? I don't know what I have gained because I don't have a scale in my fancy hospital room.
Stretch marks: Yes, lots of them but at least they aren't itching!
Belly button in or out: Out!
Wedding ring on or off: Off.
Wedding ring on or off: Off.
Sleep: Since entering the hospital it has been a learning experience. I now have four pillows behind me and another that I put under my belly to get comfy. I really just nap but I do a lot more napping.
Symptoms: Contractions are stronger than before and I can watch them on the monitor three times a day. I have had a few pretty good ones. My legs aren't as swollen since I am in bed and they have me using boots. I am more sore and more uncomfortable but heck I'm 34 weeks pregnant with TRIPLETS.
Food cravings: Everything tastes delicious still so this is a good time for me to eat new things, lol.
Food aversions: Nothing specific.
What I miss: This list just grew immensely! I miss my cats something terrible and feel so bad for them to be home alone. Kyle has been spending time with them daily, Courtney has been feeding them and Todd went over to visit with them too.

Movement: Babies are crazy movers these days. One I am laying here and can focus on them more but when its time for them to be hooked up they get mad. Sadie is the worst, she absolutely hates the monitors.
Mood: I am doing ok hanging out in the hospital. Kyle is bored to death so mom comes down each day to give him a break to run errands.
Best moment this week: I'm really not sure, maybe the two scares we had that we might be having babies. It was scary but exciting to think we would meet the babies so soon!

Looking forward to: Each monitoring and ultrasound at this point. We are just waiting for something to happen. I kind of hope it happens when Dr. Jamie is here since we have been with her this whole time but it is what it is. According to my records my final day is 9/8 so now I'm interested if we will have the babies next Monday instead of 9.11.
