Re: *~Twin TWO-sday Check-In~*
How far along: 15w5d
Milestones this week: I *think* I feel flutters!
Dr. Appts this week: None
How are you feeling: I'm feeling great. No M/S and energy is creeping back!
How much weight have you gained/lost: a solid 10lbs gained.
What did you buy for the twins so far?: Just a few outfits and a diaper bag for mommy!
Do you know gender?: No, but will find out Oct. 13th - so far away!
How's DH doing: He's been traveling much of September but he always leaves the babies a note of love on the chalkboard before he leaves. He's so freekin cute I cant stand it.
Have a great week everyone!
How far along: 16w 4d
Milestones this week: I'm starting to be able to eat regularly which, while not really a milestone per say, is rather nice.
Dr. Appts this week: This morning at 10:10! Nothing special though, just PIAC, weight, BP, measuring the belly I guess but I do get to hear the heart beats which always makes me happy
How are you feeling: Bronchitis is almost gone. Other than that pretty good, my only pregnancy complaint is back pain. Anyone else?
How much weight have you gained/lost: Lost 10 - 12
What did you buy for the twins so far?: A changing table and a whole bunch of clothes off of CL! We're waiting until the a/s next week to know if we can keep both the b & g clothes or if they need to be traded in for the opposite gender.
Do you know gender?: Next Thursday! I can hardly wait...I'm so impatient.
How's DH doing: Getting excited now that everything is more "real" - baby bump, purchasing clothes, first baby shower in 2 weeks etc.
The backpain is unbearable at times. I didnt think it would start so soon! I have to always have a pillow behind my back when sitting at work or on the couch. Just ordered my snoogle from Amazon. Hopefully that helps the sleeping.
I can hardly wait for your gender reveal too! Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
How far along: 16 weeks 6 days
Milestones this week: Last night I felt major movement on my left side, more than the typical flutter.
Dr. Appts this week: Nada
How are you feeling: Better...busy and happy its fall!!
How much weight have you gained/lost: Not sure
What did you buy for the twins so far?: We ordered two cribs and a dresser/changing table. Ready for pick up!
Do you know gender?: Not till Oct 7th!
How's DH doing: Good! Im trying to convince him to paint the nursery gray with a yellow and white stripped ceiling. It's funny to see him have a strong opinion on decor. He is not liking my decorating ideas.
How far along: 14 weeks and 4 days
Milestones this week: I bought my first pair of maternity jeans and besides the fact that they fall down a little, I love them. I can?t wait to have a bump that actually holds them up!
Dr. Appts this week: None this week. We go on 9/30 for our next regular appointment and then on 10/14 we find out the sexes! (As long as the babies cooperate)
How are you feeling: Still pretty tired all the time, I?m waiting on this energy boost that everyone talks about.
How much weight have you gained/lost: Gained 3 lbs so far and I?m happy with that!
What did you buy for the twins so far?: We are waiting to find out the sexes before we buy anything; it is definitely getting harder and harder though!
Do you know gender?: not yet, come on 10/14!!
How's DH doing?: He?s good. Starting to get annoyed by all the dumb comments people feel the need to say, ?you won?t be able to do that anymore?, ?you?ll never get anymore sleep?, ?you?ll never go out again?, etc. etc. etc. Truth be told, I?m getting really annoyed by them too!
My BFP Chart
Glad to know I'm not the only one! I was starting to think I was crazy for thinking I could already have back pain. *phew*
MH came home from Walmart yesterday with a Homedics heat pat/massager combo. I definitely recommend it!
And thanks! I am so excitedddd. We're hoping for a b/g combo but they're healthy, so I'll take them any way
How far along: 14 wks 5 days
but everyone in my family has plenty of ideas!!!
Milestones this week: I have been feeling something going on in my belly... I like to think it's the babies
Dr. Appts this week: none this week.
How are you feeling: Good, a lot of heartburn lately and my sciatic nerve in my back and my legs, so I am just trying to be comfortable.
How much weight have you gained/lost: OMG.... can I plead the 5th?... I weighed myself today.... kinda embarrassed at this point.... I've gained like 15 lbs!!! Holy crap.... mama needs to put down the chocolate.
What did you buy for the twins so far?: Just in the process of picking cribs, and making a registry list. Still pretty impressed I am holding back going crazy until the 20 wk gender u/s.
Do you know gender?: not yet
How's DH doing:He is good, drives me a little crazy from time to time, but good. He saw the registry list yesterday... and his eyes bulged out his head like a cartoon character, lol.
I feel like I've missed the last two check ins so glad to be back
How far along: 15 weeks 3 days
Milestones this week: none this week
Dr. Appts this week: not until next Wednesday....it feels so far away!
How are you feeling: good besides the head cold
How much weight have you gained/lost: I'm guess I've gain ~10 lbs
What did you buy for the twins so far?: tried to get the major furniture but it's on back order
Do you know gender?: Not until Oct 10 unless I can talk my ob into giving me an u/s next Wednesday
How's DH doing: Good. He's always rubbing and kissing my belly and has to touch it before he leaves to go anywhere.
Milestones this week: Starting to feel better, I think.
Dr. Appts this week: Nothing this week, but did have a great NT scan last week.
How are you feeling: Pretty good. Just tired. The headaches are still making their appearance occasionally too.
How much weight have you gained/lost: 2 lbs.
What did you buy for the twins so far?: I bought some neutral clothes a while ago. Last week the doc told us that he was 85% sure Baby A is a girl....so I bought some girls clothes...I can always return!
Do you know gender?: Not sure...see above. Hopefully we'll know 10/12 (OB) or 10/13 (high-risk).
How's DH doing: Doing good. I feel like he's a little detached from the pregnancy lately, but I think it's just because he's so wrapped up in football (he's a high school varsity coach).
~*~Nestie Besties with Hollylb3~*~
After 2+ years, open-heart surgery, and 3 IUIs,
our two miracles are here!
My Blog!
Hey I haven't replied here before, but found out Friday that I'm due March 8th with twins! (Due date was originally thought to be April 2nd.) We kind of figured it might happen (mom's a fraternal twin), but was still a surprise.
How far along: 15 weeks 5 days
Milestones this week: Think I'm feeling kicks or at least some movement. My bump is also more noticeable!
Dr. Appts this week: Seeing my OBGYN for the first time since finding out I'm pregnant tomorrow. Saw her before b/c we wanted to find out why we weren't pregnant after being off BC for about 10 months.
How are you feeling: Nauseous still off and on and mostly sore. Sleeping is getting way more difficult!
How much weight have you gained/lost: I know I've gained but I'm not sure how much! Wasn't weighed at last appointment for some reason.
What did you buy for the twins so far?: Nothing yet, though I really want to!
Do you know gender?: Hoping to find out at our 18 week U/S, but apparently they won't tell us until 21 weeks through our doctor.
How's DH doing: I think the whole idea is settling in finally. He's been more attentive to me which is nice. He was shaking all day Friday after seeing them both on the U/S!
How far along: 15 wks 2 d
Milestones this week: I've had the most m/s-free days in a row!
Dr. Appts this week: I went in this morning as a f/u to an appt on Friday to check my weight and keytones (Friday I dropped 4+ lbs in 24 hours and keytones were +1)
How are you feeling: Tired, but good!
How much weight have you gained/lost: I am only -2 lbs from my pre-pg weight, which means I've gained back 8 of the 10lbs I lost due to m/s
What did you buy for the twins so far?: A book on preventing preterm delivery LOL its for me, but will benefit them.
Do you know gender?: Not yet! Hoping to find out when I see the MFM on Monday!!
How's DH doing: Good - he's excited to see the twins "live" for the first time on Monday (he's been OOT since July, so he's missed all the appts and u/s
Can I be added to the list please? My EDD is 3-11 and we'll be finding out the gender (hopefully) on Monday
How far along: 16w1d
Milestones this week: consistent movement, a great ultrasound yesterday
Dr. Appts this week: just the MFM yday... nothing again until the end of next week
How are you feeling: fantastic (knock on wood!)
How much weight have you gained/lost: Still at +9 pounds
What did you buy for the twins so far?: I couldn't resist... I'll link below.
Do you know gender?: Nope. The babes wouldn't cooperate yesterday! We should hopefully find out October 3rd. *fingers crossed*
How's DH doing: A little stressed but not too bad...
Things we've bought:
This and This (two of each since they are ID and we don't know what we're having)
A triple stroller and a double snap & go (both from a friend selling them used)
And this weekend is a local HUGE twin consignment sale that my mom and I are going to. I fully intend on coming home with a ton of stuff, lol.
Our crazy, wonderful life
