My twins are growing

So the babies both looked great they are almost 2 lbs a priece.  Jacob measured 24.3 weeks and weighed 1 lb 13 oz and Mekaila measured 24.4 weeks and 1 lb 12 oz so they were both a couple days behind but he said it's normal for them to fluctuate.....so he still said they look good and they were both head down and Jacob as of now would be the first one out his head is farther down........he said so far so good....I gained another 5 lbs since my last appt.  And now I'm up 13 lbs total.  He said our goal is 37 weeks but he will be happy after 34.

I did meantion the achiness and he said it was normal since I'm all babies....he said long as it's not tightening then it's ok and normal.....he said I was doing good with my weight also he said since the twins take up 4 lbs of that and then add about 8 lbs for water for them both that makes 12 lb of my 13 gained.....so he was ok with it.....as far as work he said he would let me quit overtime if I wanted but if I'm feeling ok I can keep working a bit longer....but he doesn't think I'll be able to much longer since I'll be so huge LOL
