46 weeks!

I had a doctor's appt on Friday and they measured my uterus for the 1st time. (I guess they don't do that a lot with twins b/c it always shows you are further along than you are, but he said he just thought it would be interesting to find out) I measured 46 weeks! No wonder I feel so huge! The doctor just laughed and said "I guess your body thinks you are 46 weeks pregnant, but the babies don't agree." (the hormone that triggers labor starts with the babies). So, yes, I'm pretty uncomfortable, but I have decided that I just need to be patient and focus on how grateful I am that everything has gone SO well with this pregnancy. As far as twin pregnancies go, it couldn't be better.

We also had an ultrasound last week and the nurse just started freaking out b/c the babies were lying chest to chest and you could see both their heartbeats at the same time in the screen. (I guess it is pretty rare, she says she has never seen that in 30 years) It was pretty sweet. They also told us that we should pretty much expect a C-Section. Unless Baby B flips vertex again (which they say is possible) or their weight difference goes down (which they say is pretty unlikely), we will have to have a C-Section. So when/if I go into labor they would do another ultrasound to see positions/weight and we would decide then. If I haven't gone into labor by next Monday (17th), they will do a similar ultrasound that day and schedule either a C-Section or induction for sometime in the following 5-7 days.
