Steriods.
Today I had my labs drawn because my blood pressure has been so high. One of the test came back abnormal so Dr. Kovanda wants to do another test and give me a medication called betamethasone. It is a steroid shot that will help the babies lungs in case I have to deliver them early. I had the same thing with Riley but it was because I was in preterm labor. The test she is doing is called 24 urine. It will check the protein levels. I have to collect all my pee for 24 hours and then turn it it. The steroid shot is one right away and then another one 24 hours later.

Done with work
Today I had a NST. It is where they hook me to monitors and monitor the babies heart rates. While I was having this test done they noticed my blood pressure was high and I was also having some contractions. Because of this the Doctor has told me it is time to be done with work. I have made it to 33 weeks working and that is pretty dang good with twins. My goal was 28 weeks and I passed that by 5 weeks. Most twins get put on bed rest or taken off work at 24-28 weeks. Everyone at work is impressed and surprised how well I have done. I am very proud of myself and happy at how this pregnancy is going.

30 + weeks still working.
I am over 30 weeks and I am still working and feeling pretty good. I get tired and sore but my weekly massages are very helpful. I saw Dr. Kovanda today. She says everything is looking great. I have only gained 21 pounds and my blood sugars are great with my diet. My Fundal height is measuring 36. WOW that is crazy. I can't believe how big I am getting. Dr. Kovanda as well as myself are very proud at how well I am doing with this pregnancy. I am excited for my ultrasound in 2 weeks, Wonder how big these boys are getting. They move all the time and I swear sometime it feels like they are having a boxing match going on in there. Everyone now is asking me when I am due or say things like " you must be ready to pop any day now". If I could get paid for every comment like this that I hear daily I would be RICH. I just tell them there is 2 in that belly and then they understand and ask a million questions. Oh well I still LOVE being pregnant so I don't mind too much.
