Can you believe it??? 36 weeks!?. This was my next big goal...and here I am!
In the book "When you're expecting Twins, Triplets or Quads", Dr Luke explains that the ideal time for twins to be born is between 36 and 38 weeks. I have been looking forward to this date for a LONG time!.
I still would like them to go to "full term" (37 weeks)...so I'm setting another mini-goal of one extra week. So boys, stay in there...but start packing up and enjoy the last few days. Your lease is up next week!. After that, we are ready whenever you are -- or right around week 38 for the eviction "scheduled" date.
I will spare you all the 36-bump picture (you're not missing much, just a big belly!) and will give myself a mama bear award in recognition of excellent cooking skills of the twin cubs!! -- An award I just made up, but it's my blog...so be it! ;)

I cannot believe you are 36 weeks! Almost time!! I sent your necklace yesterday, so you should get that tomorrow or the next day!
If you need a good pre-baby activity.. start writing letters to the "baby product" companies- like Sassy, Pampers, Carters Evenflo, Huggies, etc, and address and stamp them so that when your boys birth certificates come in, you can just copy them, put them in the envelope and send them off. You will get bunch of free stuff in the mail from doing this- but it's not something you will feel like doing when your kids are here:)
congrats!! almost there...good luck
Yay Mama!!! 36 week sis my goal too--which means only 6 more weeks (ugh!) but it'll be here soon!
Can't wait to hear when the babies decide to make their debut :)
All the Best!
PS--great advice, Lani! I may start doing that myself...thanks!
I just happened upon your blog and that's WONDERFUL news! A big HUGE congrats on making it to 36 weeks! That's wonderful! One of my friends carried twins to 37 weeks and gave birth naturally (after being induced due to high bloodpressure). Hopefully all will go just as well for you. However you plan to deliver.
Congrats again! I'm just behind you.. at 34 weeks, but I just have one little man in my oven.
GO MAMA BEAR! You are doing so very well. I cannot believe how you've sailed so smoothly into this milestone.
Cannot wait to hear about the babies' entrance into the world- they are going to be so ready to meet their mama!
I loved your comment on my post, and I'm all about the best new award in town. Yay for us! (Well, I still have a few days, but we'll pretend for now :)
I told my mom today about your walrus belly shot pic when we were laughing over my edema situation, so I feel you, I really do. One more week... YOU GOT THIS!
congrats!!!
