Quints Pregnancy- 27 weeks

So we're only a few more days from our big milestone of 28 weeks. I'm so thankful to still be pregnant with the quints. Like any pregnancy, I'm getting more uncomfortable every day, but with that being said, I really am enjoying this pregnancy. I love being pregnant, it's such a wonderful blessing. I love feeling the babies move around, they are very active. I had a sono today and everyone still looks good. They all weigh between 2lb to 2lbs 11oz. I was worried about the smallest baby but my doctor said she was doing fine. I was surprised they were that big. I hope they continue to grow each day. I know I'm growing like crazy.

My sugar levels have been on the low side so my doctors are letting me eat pretty much whatever I want. Steven got us take-out all weekend and my sugar levels were never too high. My nurses are calling me a "pretend" diabetic. I have to agree with them, I honestly don't think I have too big of a problem. My nurses are working on getting permission to scale back on monitoring my sugar levels since I'm not having issues of being too high.

I've enjoyed lots of company lately. Steven & Brady came up Thursday to see me, Mom and Kristian came Friday to see me (they took Brady home with them when they left) so Steven & I got to spend the rest of the weekend together. My grandmother from Houston came up Sunday and because of bad weather, she stayed Monday night as well, so it's been nice to see so much of my family lately. I've also had lots of friends stop by.

I want to thank everyone who's been praying for us. I know the only reason I've made it this far is because of all the prayers people have been saying on our behalf and God saying yes to those prayers.

KTBS in shreveport's facebook page shared your story and mentioned your blog. i'm so glad they did. i am an rn and work in cardiac stepdown unit, so its great to read about a little medical miracle such as yours that i would never see myself at work. i will pray for the sweet tiny little babies you carry and for your health and nerves, as i'm sure they are frazzled!
