28w2d today. I had an ultrasound last week. Both girls are doing well with weights estimated around 2.5 pounds each. Baby A is slightly bigger than Baby B, but has been consistently throughout so no concerns there. My cervix is still measuring around 5-6 cm, they can't get an accurate measurement because Baby A is ensuring her status and refuses to move her head from my cervix. I don't think she needs to worry as seems Baby B is in no hurry to get out. She is transverse across the top of my abdomen with her head resting on A's feet. My doctor said my cervix is the longest he's seen in a twin pregnancy. Guess that whole "threatened pre-term labour" thing wasn't much of a threat. Oops. I suppose there is no way of knowing what condition my cervix would be in had I kept working so we'll just say my superstar cervix is due to my early retirement.

The 2nd trimester honeymoon is over, I'm starting to tire out quickly again and am having more sleepless nights than not. I am so lucky I don't have to work, I don't think I could at this point anyway. If I sit too long my ribs start to hurt. I have no idea why, it just happens. I don't mind not sleeping at night because I know I don't have to work the next day. I have found sleeping on the floor is more comfortable than sleeping on the bed.

Time is moving so quickly I feel like I'll be bringing my babies home any day now. When we are invited to something I actually have to consider whether I might be in the hospital that weekend. We are pushing it with a friends wedding in mid-May, it's out of town (in the mountains, actually) but I can't get June 6 out of my head. I'm certain that's when it's going to happen. The location of the wedding is only about three hours from the city, if I have even a slight hint I'm in labour, we'll be in the truck on our way home inside of five minutes.

I feel more grateful for this pregnancy every day. I know it sounds cheesy but I can't get over how lucky I am. It's spread to every facet of my life. I feel lucky for Mr. M and Ms. O, lucky to live where I do (my house, my neighbourhood, my city, my province and my country). I am so freaking happy, it's disgusting.
