24 1/2 week update

Well, I had my appointment at the hospital today with the specialist and I have good news and bad news. The good news is that the babies all look great. They are all 1lb and 8oz and believe it or not the boys are EXACTLY the same size (in grams). Baby girl is just a couple of grams short of the boys, but it still comes out to be the 8oz for all of them. My body on the other had is not behaving so well. I honestly have to say that I was surprised because of how great I really have been feeling. At each of these appointment's they measure all of the babies parts and then they measure my cervix via ultrasound. Last month it looked good, this time not so much. It it was little 'short' so I have been put on some medicine and put on bed rest. They said that it was nothing that I did to cause this, but my body is just starting to change so we have to make it stop. Since this is something that they caught early hopefully the bed rest and meds (which are to relax my uterus) will help and next Tuesday when I go back to be checked again everything will be back on track. So, for now I am stuck (and even if things look better next week it does not mean that is a get out of jail card). I am allowed to get out of bed to take a shower, go to the bath room, I guess grab a bite to eat when I am alone and like a dog, I am allowed to go for rides in cars. Don't worry, I won't hang my head out the window as it is WAY too cold for that! I can lay down anywhere though and I'm even still allowed to go to my hair appointment tomorrow so that will be nice. I have to be honest in that I am not taking this well. It probably did not help that I did not sleep well last night and when I am really tired I get emotional. You all know me so staying in bed, especially when I feel good is going to be hard, but the hardest part is going to me Caleb. I will survive as we are going to have healthy babies so I am am on full time cooking duty. I do have a belly shot update that was taken a couple of days ago that I will post and hopefully some ultrasound pics. We did get some good face shots this time.
