30 Weeks Doctor's Appointment

Today was a great appointment!  My OB was very excited that I am practically at 30 weeks (it's official tomorrow).  At the first appointment, when we discovered it was triplets, he said we should shoot to make it to 30-35 weeks.  30 weeks is a huge milestone!  In the words of my doctor, "let's make it to 30 weeks and then we'll get greedy". So now we get greedy.  He is still shooting for 35 weeks and so are we.  If I go into labor before 34 weeks, he will do his best to stop it.  He also said it was amazing I haven't been hospitalized at all during this pregnancy.  It was all very reassuring to hear. 

This week I gained 5 lbs, my blood pressure is holding steady, and my belly measured 48cm.  My cervix dropped to 1.5cm, but my doctor did not seem concerned since it has been fluctuating.

The babies looked great today.  They are getting so big it's hard to see them on the ultrasound.  Part of Baby C was behind Baby A.  It's hard to imagine what it feels like in there for them.  No wonder they say multiples are so close and they prefer to be next to each other when they are born.  They don't know any different.
