Dear Little Clammies,

   We are now in our third trimester - Thank Goodness!!! While I do love being pregnant and feeling you both move, kick, and beat each other up, I’m ready (oh so ready) to be done. The list of complaints is a mile long starting with not enough sleep (I’m up every hour like clockwork to do the dreaded pee dance) to big, fat swollen feet that your poor dad rubs for me every night, sore back, growing pains, acid reflux. You name it, I have it. Your cousin Alexee and oh so evil Auntie Kristy quack and me when I walk since the waddle is now in full effect.

   Your dad and I had what was probably one of our last dates last weekend. He took me to PF Changs (YUM), but by the time we left I was feeling a little miserable. The days of me leaving the house for anything other than doctors appointments are quickly coming to an end.

   We had our growth ultrasound this morning. Shenzie was moving quite a bit, but the doctor said Heaten was twice as active. The funny thing is I couldn’t feel anything when Heaten was moving. It must be the position he is laying in and the placenta blocking me from feeling it. You are both still head down, which most likely will continue since you’ve been that way for about 10 weeks. Shenzie is 2 pounds 10 ounces and Heaten is 3 pounds 1 ounce. There is some concern over Shenzie being so much smaller, you are 14% smaller than Heaten at this point. The doctor said if it gets to be 20 -25 % less then it will be a much bigger concern. Heaten is in the 50th percentile for growth and weight while Shenzie is only in the 10th percentile. I now go for 2x weekly monitoring to make sure you are both doing well and your heart rate stays consistant through movement and contractions. I had high hopes you would both stay cooking until 37 weeks, but I’m beginning to think that its going to be sooner. I’m still holding out for 35-36 weeks so we shall see. Your dad and I are putting the finishing touches on the nursery this weekend and getting things together in the event it happens sooner rather than later. We can’t wait to meet you both!!!!

We love you Clammies!!
