Pregnancy: Week 30

The babies are growing at an astounding rate. This week I started weeekly non-stress tests as well as ultrasounds every 2 weeks to estimate fetal size and weight to make sure the babies are thriving and growing properly. It feels good that they are keeping such a good eye on these babes. I continue to have Braxton Hicks contractions pretty frequently but nothing that is closer than 15 minutes apart. So lets take a look:

 The twins are the size of a good-size cabbage in weight, tipping the scales this week at 3 pounds. (Length: about 15 3/4 inches, head to heel.) LeeAnn estimated their weights at 3lbs 1oz each on Thursday. Right on target and both head down!

And the belly, oh the belly. It just gets bigger and bigger....
