Today I went in for the ultrasound and doctor's appointment. The ultrasound ended up being a bit of a challenge because "Baby A" (the one closest to the cervix) has her head SOOO low that they couldn't get a good image of it or measure it's size. She is head down, way down, into the pelvis. "Baby B" is still head up and actually has her head in between the legs of her sister and then curves into a ball with her legs on her sister's head. So both babies are kicking the other in the head. Kinda funny. The results of the ultrasound guesstimate that "Baby A" is 5.7 pounds and "Baby B" is 6 pounds. There is a much greater inaccuracy rate when the babies are at 36 weeks because it is harder to find the parts they need to measure... so who knows how big they really are.
I am dilated to 4cm now and my doctor stripped my membranes to try and get things going. As a back up we have an induction date of September 24th. It is nice to know that sometime soon this will end.
As of this evening I am cramping a lot and I believe passed my plug. (This could be way too much information for you....) We will see if the girls come tonight. Until then....
