How far along? 18 weeks!

How big is baby? Bell pepper or 5.5 inches

Any appointments this week? Not until anatomy scan on 1/3

Symptoms? Heartburn, pain in my breasts sometimes

Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm excited that baby hit the hearing milestone! I've noticed DH getting more excited about the pregnancy lately (also more protective in a sweet way). I had to listen to a lot of boy/girl speculation over the weekend, but it's nice that our families are so happy for us. I do keep reminding them that I like yellow whenever they go on about how they need to know what color to buy - I really don't want to be in a sea of pink. 

GTKY: Do you have a new year's resolution or any goals for the new year? I have a resolution to read the new testament this year. I'm also going to do Mrs. Frugalwoods uber frugal month challenge in January (great blog). My spending always inflates by the end of the year and then I get it back under control.

20 weeks!! 

Two bananas

appointment on thursday. Seems like it's been too long between them.

just tired, sore, and hungry.

im glad to have hit twenty weeks. I have no idea if it's true but early on I read that the risk of one twin miscarrying or "disappearing" is greatly decreased at 20 weeks so now I feel like we're really going to do this lol. 

I think ink ours will be to just survive this year with three under two

@Jkp7749  congrats on making it to 20 weeks with your twins!!

18 weeks!  Baby is a bell pepper or artichoke size

1/3 appointment.  We haven't scheduled an AS yet so hoping to get that soon after my appointment.  

Symptoms:  my cold is finally resolving!  I had some abdominal pain this week and it was worsening throughout the day.  We were so busy at work I couldn't rest and I finally had to ask one of the OBGYN I work with what he thought it was and he sent me to his office to make sure my cervical length was ok and baby was ok.  Luckily all was well and now I'm feeling good!  Glad that little scare is over! 

New Years resolution:  hmm...maybe to try to enjoy this pregnancy and worry less.  Also to try to eat healthier.  I was doing so well until the last week or so...gotta get back on track!

How far along? 18 Weeks!

How big is baby? Artichoke (5.6 inches)

Any appointments this week? Not until 1/6 for our anatomy scan. Can't wait to see her again!

Symptoms? Terrible reflux. But everything else seems to be feeling better. My headaches are tapering which is nice. 

Rants/Raves/Questions? I think I had a BH on Christmas Eve and finally *might* have felt some movement. But nothing since and I'm so ready! Boo for anterior placenta! We had an amazing and busy weekend with family and friends. We got some adorable baby gifts and one really special one - MH's great grandmother made a quilt for each grandchild and great grandchild. Before she passed (long ago) she made one for MH's future child. We have the last one she ever made and it made us all cry when we opened it. 

GTKY: Do you have a new year's resolution or any goals for the new year? Haven't really thought about it yet. I need to eat healthier now that my appetite is coming back and get into some more routine exercise.

@ShadeofGreen816 I have tears in my eyes reading about the quilt.  So so amazing

@ShadeofGreen816 - That's awesome that your LO gets the quilt!

22 weeks, size of corn on the cobb.

No appointments this week.

Symptoms: RLP,  baby kicks, and a huge protruding belly. But really, I'm at the point now that I forget half the time that I'm pregnant.

I have a rave. We bought baby's take home outfit this past weekend. DH and I picked it together which we didn't do with either of our other two so it was a special thing. 

GTKY: none yet.

How far along? 22 weeks!

How big is baby? size of a coconut 

Any appointments this week? none until mid January 

Symptoms? random aches and pains

Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm beyond glad to have all my Christmas get together soon over. it's been a happy, sad, and stressful weekend! we announced the sex of our baby to the family and everyone was excited for us so that was a relief...even the kiddos who wanted a baby girl were excited about the boy announcement.

GTKY: Do you have a new year's resolution or any goals for the new year? Nothing in particular, I always try to eat better at the beginning of the year. I guess big goal will be to prep and adjust to the new baby on the way!

18 weeks

next appointment is check up and anatomy scan on Jan 10. 

Reflux is is starting so I've been sleeping in the recliner for the second half of the night. 

Still not feeling any movement. Still forgetting I'm really pregnant. I keep telling myself once baby is moving I will feel more connected. Don't know how true that is though...

gtky: to try to worry less and enjoy my time with DD before this baby arrives.

GTKY: Do you have a new year's resolution or any goals for the new year?  I just want to be able to maintain going to the gym up until and after baby!!
