Hey everyone, no update on the babies as our next appt. isn't until Thursday but I had Mark take a belly picture today. I updated it on the website.

Someone had asked the measurement around my stomach (I forget who or I'd PM it <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">). The measurement around is 45.25 inches. And the mesurement from my pubic bone to the top of my uterus (referred to as the fundal height) is 49cm. This fundal height is suppose to correspond to weeks pregnant, give or take a bit for a womans pre-pregnancy size and the size of the baby (i.e. someone measuring 25cm is about 25 weeks along). So Mark keeps joking and saying I'm 9 weeks overdue <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Silly guy.

Hope everyone is doing well!! We've only got 5.5 weeks left and I'm so excited. Just thought I'd share a quick update!!!

LOL, your responses make me crack up. I love reading the responses and the surprise in the posts... makes my day <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">.

Mel, tell Jazmine that it's actually getting MORE comfortable to sleep (go figure) because I don't have to prop my stomach up in bed anymore so it doesn't sag to the side... it's so big it props itself up LOL! Also, the recliner and the couch were my friends for quite a few weeks.

It's ok Christi, laugh all you want. I'm not offended in the least.

Now I just have to figure out how to get RID of this belly after the babies show up. Other moms keep telling me how busy I'm going to be, every night in bed I keep thinking of how I can sneak in a run or something. I suppose I'll figure it out!

OMG!!!! Julie...you are HUGE!!!!!!!!<br>
How do you even walk around? Sleep? Sit?<br>
<br>
I remember this joyous time of feeling the kicks in the belly and
hearing the heartbeat (or "beats"--plural- in your case).
Enjoy these last few weeks of attention b/c once the babies come
you kinda become second fiddle!<br>
<br>
Take it all in and enjoy!!!!

My first response when I saw the new pic was HOLY COW! You definitely look ready to pop. I am glad that it is coming up 5.5 weeks and counting.

I hope you are resting and feeling okay I can only imagine how tiring toting that belly around is becoming.

Take Care,
Lindsey

Ditto to what Lindsey said...Holy Cow! Who would have thought it was possible to skin to stretch that far!

Funny thing happened, been hesitating to post this, but I have to. A while back I was looking at your belly photos...my husband glanced over and said it looked a profile of a large boob! Really, now that he mentioned it, it does. I hope you enjoyed the story. Sometimes laughing in the only way to make it through a day!

Wow! I can't believe they're almost here!!! I'm so excited for you, and I admit I'm jealous (that you're having kids, not that you're having them all at once!), oh well, I'll get my baby someday!

Julie:

Thank you for sharing another belly picture. You hang in there. I am so glad for you that your day is getting close to deliver your babies. You are truely a miracle!! Take Care!!<img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0">

Everything is going pretty good with me. We went up to vacation in the mountains this past week. It was so beautiful up there! We did not go up too high. I think the altitude slowed me and the baby down some during the trip, but I think we are back to normal now. I ended up taking lots of naps and taking it easy to offset it. Things are back to normal now. Back to lots of kicking and rolling around. I am at 26 weeks now. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
