Day 40- The countdown is on T-11 Days to go!) Another post from leon

DAY 40 - The Count Down is on T-11 Days to Go! (Another post from Leon)

Had some contractions again today and they administered another dose of brethane (spelling?) however, the Doctors said that will be the last dose as they will let the contractions run their course from here moving forward.

Kim's now on continuous monitoring with the exception of 2 short walk breaks, a shower break and off monitoring from 12am-4am. Which doesn't lend itself to getting much sustained sleep as the nurses are having to constantly come in to find the babies and get them back on the monitor.

The journey is coming to an end but the anxiety and stress seem to be multiplying. The closer we get the more the tension seems to rise, and Kim is getting exhausted. We continue to pray and ask God for His hand to deliver our girls in 11 days healthy, safe, and happy!

We're having the last growth ultrasound on Monday (3/16) and looking forward to seeing the weights of the babies (2 weeks ago they were 3lb 5oz and 3lb 3oz). Then we're only 9 days away from delivering. Kim's OBGYN has scheduled her C-Section for Wednesday March 25th!

Thanks again family and friends for your thoughts, prayers, calls and wishes. We'll keep you posted as we move forward.

Leon and Kim
