Out of the Weeds! 35 weeks

So for the past two months we having been watching the twins growth VERY closely. He has been growing at a very fast rate and she, not so much. This could lead to a domino effect of allot of complications and possible premature delivery. The past visit seemed as if she was catching up but we were not sure. So at today's visit we waited with baited breath.....he rolled in at 6lbs 1 oz ..... and she rolled in at 5 lbs 4 oz. Yes she gained a whole pound and 3 oz in two weeks, this is huge!. The biggest size difference was at 24.6% and as of today it is only 13%, anything under 20% is good. So it seems we are out of the weeds and have an average, relatively normal, twin pregnancy. We are counting down the days to 37 weeks (8/13), this is full term for twins. At that point our friends Rick & Lindsay promised to take me out on the boat and ride the rapids to instigate delivery. So now we hurry up and wait!
