24 WEEKS!!!
Well kiddies, we've made it to the very edge of viability for these little guys. Every week from here on out (and I'm determined that there will be at LEAST 12 more) increases the chance of healthy babies exponentially... as does the weight they will be gaining. For the next 4 weeks or so the average gain (per baby) is 1/4 lb. After 28 weeks it can go up to as much as 1/2 lb. per week per baby.
Watch Here for the amazing expanding abdomen!!!
I'm feeling good, sleeping and eating well. Walking as much as I can muster the energy for and resting when I can't. The kids are asking more questions about the belly and I am finding them to be VERY intelligent and understanding of what's going on. My older son said the babies in my belly are like his cousins, not his brother and I said that was a good way to look at it.
These are my last 3 days of work before I go on medical disability leave. I can make it... ;)
