1. How many weeks are you? 26+3
2. How are you feeling? Heavy, sore, swollen, but mentally happy!
3. Any dr. Appointments or news? Taking the 3 hour GTT today, I'm pretty sure I'll be diagnosed with GD, I'll be surprised if I'm not. 
4. Anything else exciting going on? Had our baby shower on Saturday and it was beautiful! My grandmother made the girls handmade blankets just like she has done for all of the other babies in the family since I was born. It was a great gift to open. 

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!! Kierri's side will be pink. Kinley's will be purple. I think green and brown will be the tie in colors. We're also going with a bird theme for their bedding, but other than that, just whatever we can find.

1. How many weeks are you? 25+4 weeks
2. How are you feeling? Having a hard time sleeping and getting comfortable- one of the girls is head down and low and makes it painful to walk.
3. Any dr. Appointments or news? Going in on Wednesday for a cervix check and then at 28 weeks for an ultrasound and my GD test
4. Anything else exciting going on? Working on transforming our basement to a playroom for our kids so it is easier to entertain them when the twins come home

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!!

Our current nursery is green with yellow accents- we didn't know the gender when we had our first and planned it around a super nice rocking nursery chair we were gifted- I am going to make some small tweaks but mostly keep it the same.  I like the idea of all 4 of our kids having the same nursery.

Hey ladies I'm mobile bumping from the hospital so please forgive typos etc...

Babies are doing well on their NSTs but we won't know really what is going on until Thursday at our growth scan to check fluid levels and weight gain. If all is well they may send me home on bedrest but I will probably be here until delivery. Hospital is so boring but I know this is the best place for me to be right now.

1. How many weeks are you? 37!!
2. How are you feeling? This physically sucks pretty bad but I'm still moving.
3. Any dr. Appointments or news? Appt this afternoon. Have a cs scheduled for next Tuesday.
4. Anything else exciting going on? My mom is coming to stay on Wednesday until after the babies are born so that will help a lot with DD (DH isn't here in the mornings to help) and take a load off DH too.

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!!
No theme, just dark furniture and nice grey/blue paint, white trim and taupe carpet.

Mrs.McIrish

1. How many weeks are you? 36+ 5

2. How are you feeling? Feeling rough. My legs are just so tired/sore and I don't feel like they can support my weight etc. My left foot is so swollen and I feel like I'm going to fall down if I just walk to the bathroom.

3. Any dr. Appointments or news? I have a BPP and MFM appt this afternoon. I want to beg him to move up the induction. My IF mind is taking over and I'm freaking out that something will happen to the babies in the next week. I think 37 weeks is more then sufficient when I can't even walk. DH is leaving work to take me to the appt bc I don't feel safe to drive myself and walk to the office.
4. Anything else exciting going on?
nope, just whining

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!! Long story but the nursery is blue send I refused to repaint it (just painted last Aug). I have pink accents and the area rug is multicolor floral. Cribs/furniture is white.

@ksgsmu‌ hang in there! Hope the babies continue to do well and stay out for a while! Eta: I mean stay put, obviously

1. How many weeks are you?
12w2d
2. How are you feeling?
Pretty good. Had quite the scare on Friday! I was rear-ended minutes away from my office. I was so afraid something would happen to my babies. ER and follow-up OB visit showed strong heartbeats and bouncing little ones! Such a relief!
3. Any dr. Appointments or news?
NT scan and MaterniT21 test on Thursday. Hoping all looks good!
4. Anything else exciting going on?
Just lots of good thoughts as we've been sharing the news more...

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!!
Waiting to see what we're having first. But likely something with animals..

Hoping everyone's doing well!!

4. Anything else exciting going on? Cribs shipped & should arrive in about a week & 1/2!

Qotw: we painted 3 grey walls & 1 pink. Cribs will be on pink wall. No "theme" really - I can't find anything I like! Trying to find decor, so far just have the tulle poms hanging.

1. How many weeks are you? 27w3d
2. How are you feeling?  I feel like I'm starting all over with exhaustion.  I was feeling pretty spry, but have really slowed down in the last few weeks.  To the point that I slept from 8:30 PM until 5:30 AM without even peeing last night!
3. Any dr. Appointments or news? Doctor's appointment was yesterday and everything looked great.  Baby girl is head down shoving her skull into my pelvis.  Baby boy is breech shoving his skull into my ribs.  They are measuring 7 and 3 days ahead, respectively, and 2lb7oz and 2lb3oz.  Everything was perfect.  I took my GD test and I am waiting on the results. 
4. Anything else exciting going on? Now that we have had our three baby showers (one was a surprise), I think we are going to start using gift cards to buy some things that we didn't get.  People are still asking what we need, so we may decide to hold off.  

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!!  We just had it painted yesterday!  It is grey (pewter) and the crib linens are grey/white paisley.  DS will have blue piping on his and DD will have pink piping on hers.  We are now looking for closet space solutions, as the closet is SUPER TINY.   We are thinking of doing this:  https://www.pinterest.com/pin/314759461429892294/

Here are the pictures of the painted room.  The TV stand cube shelf will stay, but the TV will not be staying (much to DH's dismay).

1. 30 weeks today! 

2. I am so uncomfortable. When I am sitting or laying down I am totally fine. When I stand up and walk my stomach feels like its going to fall off. Baby boy is really low and baby girl is up high in my ribs.

3. Had a GD appointment yesterday and decided it would be best to go on insulin. I have to see an endocrinologist tomorrow though now that I'm on the insulin. Next ob and ultrasound appointment is on Nov 19th!

4. Still just finishing up paperwork and such for our new house! As long as everything goes well this week we will be closing next Friday!! Eeee!

QOTW: Their nursery is going to have grey walls and have yellow and navy accents throughout the room (bookshelves, canvases, etc.). We're having a photographer come to the hospital after they are born to do some bonding photos with the hubs and I and some single photos of them. I plan to get big canvases of their newborn photos and put those above their cribs with their names in wood letters next to them.Their cribs are white and sheets are yellow, navy, and grey chevron! I'm so excited! I can't wait to get moved so I can finally see it come together after all of the planning!

Consider this my intro!

1. How many weeks are you? 13+4 

2. How are you feeling? Good! Exhaustion is getting minimal. Time to get in those few productive weeks while I can!

3. Any dr. Appointments or news? OB was last week...heard both babies for the first time. NT Results all came back as low risk. 

4. Anything else exciting going on? MFM appointment and anatomy scan are scheduled for 12/16. So ready to see how we can fix up the new nursery since DD small former nursery is too small for two. 

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!!  We had furniture from our guest room we will be using and it's a oaky wood color so regardless of boy/girl I will do a safari theme since I can use the neutral colors and add a pop of color depending on sex.

I am 11 1/2 weeks and I feel so surprisingly good that it scares me sometimes. Just a little boob tenderness and fatigue, but I was overwhelmingly sick/tired/sore for weeks so it is hard to make myself not worry. My next appointment is tomorrow, and I am dying to hear those beautiful little heartbeats! Nothing exciting-feels like all I do is eat and sleep, lol.

My nursery is going to be celestial themed..especially with like beautiful pictures of galaxies and nebulas, etc. The babies will have celestial names, I am a hippy and I love it!

jaytee16

1. How many weeks are you?  26w tomorrow

2. How are you feeling?  Tired, getting more uncomfortable. My feet seem to be getting further when trying to put socks on  

3. Any dr. Appointments or news?  I saw my OB on Thurs.  I'm mad at myself that I remember some of my questions but forgot to ask about my cervix length checks.  They did on during my a/s, but nothing since and it's kind of really bothering me.  It seems like everyone else I talk to has had them/is getting them checked so much more often.

4. Anything else exciting going on?  We got a good bit of the nursery done this past weekend, as well as did our prenatal classes!

ac5008

1. How many weeks are you? 10 weeks and some change

2. How are you feeling? Zofran is my BFF! Started taking it the last two days and see a noticeable diference.

3. Any dr. Appointments or news? After a few very scary appointments at the MFM specialist, they were just barely able to rule out conjoined twins (our odds are less than 10% after baby A finally separated just a bit from baby B. For now we are acting "as if" it is definitely mono/mono twins. Although its early, the MFM specialist is very convinced that we wont find a membrane due to the various positions the twins have been entwined in. We go back Monday for our momo counseling session and to talk about a rough treatment plan (inpatient at 24-26 weeks). Although a membrane could still be found, our doctor is convinced enough to start planning for the what ifs. We know its a scary road but we are keeping faith.

 
4. Anything else exciting going on? We are also in the process of moving, so that's interesting.

Qotw: what is your nursery theme/ color scheme? If you're not that far yet, what are some ideas your thinking? Bonus points for pip!!!  We wont even start a nursery until the twins are either born, or we find a membrane. We know what were up against so if they are momos well have lots of time when they are in the NICU to do their room!
