the girls shocked us all by jumping up over a pound each in less than 2 weeks!
Baby A went from 3lb 15oz to 5lb even
Baby B went from 4lb 6oz to 5lb 5oz
they also jumped back up on the chart to the 28th and 31st percentiles.
which means, no hospitalization for me and no delivery for them. yay!
the doctor was completely shocked. i told him i've been loading up on protein shakes, steak, hard boiled eggs and other protein (and ice cream incidentally, but i didn't mention that). he said he can't say that medically that works, but it seems to be helping so i should keep it up.
i feel much better knowing they have hit the 5 pound mark. they are currently at the average birth weight for twins. hopefully they grow a little bit longer, but i am feeling much more prepared for them to arrive any time now.

Wow, what awesome news!! Shows that sometimes we know our own bodies better than the docs, huh? that 5 lb mark is so huge, especially for twinkies, you did a great job!
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful news!!! Keep up the good work Mama!
Steak it's whats for dinner and healthy little babies.
Yeah babies! I think the ice cream helped for sure. It is the cure for just about everything. :)
