26 Week Appointment...Baby Mix-up?

So, at my appointment 2 weeks ago, Daniel was all of a sudden measuring bigger than William, and William hadn't grown very much. At the time I questioned whether or not they had them mixed up (trust me its an easy thing to do!). So when I heard the measurements today, I was positive that last time they had the boys mixed up, and the ultrasound tech agrees that it is very likely. So they have grown as follows:

Lexie (Baby A) - 1lb 11oz (up 5oz)
Allison (Baby B)- 1lb 12oz (up 5oz)
William (Baby C)- 2lb 10oz (up 13oz from corrected weight from 2 weeks ago)
Daniel (Baby D)- 1lb 13oz (up 3 oz from corrected weight from 2 weeks ago)

We are up to 8lbs of baby now! Holy moly! And they are 4 very active babies! Everyone who does an ultrasound always comments on how active they are, and then talk about it amongst the staff. It is so funny! I think the best part of this pregnancy is the reactions of people when the find out I'm carrying quads.

Anywho, my cervix is still doing great, too! So...no bed rest still! I asked the doctor if he had a prediction for how long I would carry the babies for and he is guessing at least 32 weeks. I really feel like that will not be a problem, and if these kids keep growing like this, we ought to have a 4 pounder and at least one 3 pounder, if not two. I think that Lexie will probably fall into the high 2's in weight...just a feeling.

I also went to the cardiologist, who I didn't actually see, for my echo cardiogram. Apparently no news is good news, but they said that they will send the report to my docs and they will let me know.

Aside from all of that, there is nothing much to report. Just happy goodness all around.  :P
