20 Weeks 2 Days

I've been home now for 1 1/2 weeks and everything seems to be going well (beside my butt hurting a bit). The girls move sooooo much now. It is fun to watch my tummy move! I will see my doctor in 2 days. He will check on the growth of the girls and the length of my cervix. It is wonderful how so many people have supported and continue to be supportive of my family. Thank you. The next 3-5 weeks are pretty crucial milestones to pass. I will keep you upated.

19 Weeks 1 Day

Thank goodness things continue to stay quiet in terms of contractions. It's been two weeks and things are looking very promising. I have no fever or tenderness. The girls now weight about 9 oz (260 g) and are developing normally. The doctor chose to send me home 1.5 days ago, where I will maintain strict bed rest, take my temperature 3 times daily and monitor myself for contraction pain or bleeding. He discharged only because I have help at home, my mom has moved in to take care of the kids and the house and now me. The benefit it my ability to see my kids daily. I admit it makes me a bit nervous but I am confident I will maintain the same degree of bed rest as I did in the hospital due to the fear of having preterm labor or premature rupture of membranes again. So far so good,. Thank you for all the prayers and well wishes, I am certain they are helping us pull through!
