Well after 24 hours in the hospital we basically have no movement tobar active labor by the twins.  The twins on the monitors look happy as can be in there.  Maybe Carolyn is just to nice of a host.  Carolyn had been at nothing (-2) when she came in and got to 2 cm dialated using a foley bulb but still have a depth of -2.  That was this morning and the same this afternoon around 2 PM.  From checks on the babies they were worried that since they were both head down they were blocking each otehr from truely engaging and we began talks about what if they do not engage. Maybe a C-section tonight or tomorrow because the thought was at this length with twins they might not be able to engage if both are in the pelvis.  We asked what all our options are and asked them for some time to try and use a little movement to try and move the babies to let one engage.

 

Well Carolyn got right to it.  They did not worry about the monitoring of the babies as much and let Carolyn move. She was doing deep knee bend squats and rocking back and forth and doing some awesome yoga poses.  Thanks Julie for having Carolyn be so in tune with her body and yoga.

Look at that downward dog at 40 weeks 6 days with twins.  Oh my god she is amazing.

Doing the army crawl to push up baby B. Then we did soem work with Hoss trying to push baby B out of the way.

 

Then the doctors came back in to have a discussion with us. They gave us some options and one was  to keep going with pitoson to see if we could start active labor and to do another check and possibly rupture the membrane to the lower bag of waters.  Maybe one of those coudl help active labor start. 

 

Well they did a check to see if rapturing the bag of waters was an option and we got good news.  The baby is engaged with the cervix with the membrane stretched over it and she is at 5 cm.  Awesome.  So the bag of waters was ruptured and we are continueing with the yoga poses.  You go girl!!
