Getting bigger and bigger!

I just came home from Dr. Brothers' office. I am now having to go to the doctor EVERY week. I see Dr. Brothers every other week and the opposite weeks I see Dr. Magee! I have gained almost 17 pounds and am now at 21 weeks. Dr. Brothers said the average amount of weight gain for a mother of twins is 40 lbs...YIKES! Her comment about my weight today when I frowned on the scales was, "I want these babies to get so big that you are miserable pregnant and are ready to deliver!".
The concern at this point is premature labor, so she told me that I would possibly have to have a company come to the house to install a fetal monitor that would be connected to our home phone. I would have to wear the monitor for an hour in the morning and an hour at night. The monitor would alert my doctor if there was any detection of contractions. I am hoping that everything continues to go so well that I will not need that added monitoring.
These sweet boys are SO active. Holden was moving around so much today that Dr. Brothers had to chase him around with the heart dopler. It sounded like he was kicking at the monitor. He already has a mind of his own...not a big surprise!!
Thank you for all of the continued prayers and support!!

Their named!

It has been difficult to think of boy names after using our favored names for the triplets! After so much thought, the boys finally have names! The active little guy that has settled at the top of my tummy...formally known as Baby B...is Holden Grey! Holden means "gracious". My sweet, calm little man that always has his brother laying on him...formally known as Baby A... is Collin Reed. Collin means peaceful! It is nice to be able to call them by name! They already are sporting their personalities. I believe my strong willed guy will be Holden and my laid back man will be Collin!

Dr, Brothers told us on Tuesday that we should expect to be in the hospital around July 16th. They will take the stitches from the cerclage out on that day and typically that causes labor to be induced! Time is flying by! All of the boys furniture and bedding has been ordered. I will post pictures of the nursery when I have it ready! I have SO enjoyed buying clothes and shoes for them!

Baby boys love their moms!

It is confirmed...two baby Crumley boys are on their way! Dr. Magee was surprised that we found one more "penis" after having one boy twin already and the triplets being all boys! Everyone is thrilled! I have been asked so many times what I would like...boys or girls. I did not have a preference when I was pregnant with the triplets, but when I lost them I really wanted little boys! I am imagining being sprayed during diaper changes, live animals being in my house and flamable liquids being fascinating! So many people that hear that I am having boys tell me..."Little boys so love their moms!". Dr. Mageee will take major measurements on March 9th and give us more pictures! I will post them when we get them! So excited about welcoming two sweet little guys!
