7 pounds 5 ounces

That's how much the babies' combined estimated weight is. In fact, it's quite possibly even more than that. Baby A is already wedged into the birth canal, so it's really hard to get an accurate head measurement. Even Paula felt as though Baby A is probably bigger, but she just couldn't get a good view of Baby A's head. So the weight is truly an estimated weight...probably erring on the small side. She wants us to bring the babies in after they are born, because she "wants to have a talk with that baby." Baby A has been fairly difficult, if not nearly impossible, to measure the past 2 ultrasounds. Oh, and Paula wishes she could be at the delivery with us, so she could see the reactions on our faces...because she has known what sexes the babies are since our 20 week ultrasound!

Anyway....
Baby A = 3 pounds 7 ounces (up from 2#9oz three weeks ago)
Baby B = 3 pounds 14 ounces (up from 2#11oz three weeks ago)

What absolutely SHOCKED me was that those 2 sets of feet I thought were under my ribs??? Well, those are actually two baby bottoms...not feet!! I couldn't believe it.

In semi more important news, especially related to the pre-term labor, the exit out is measuring exactly the same as it was 2 weeks ago!! Exactly! 2.3cm without pressure on my belly, and 1.7cm with pressure. Simply amazing.
