Any appointment updates? Nope! I don't have another appointment for 2 more weeks!
How are you feeling? Overall good, I have still had some sporadic m/s left. I'm getting my energy back and getting more active so overall pretty good!

Anything Else? Nope! I'll be in Chicago next week but I'll still try to remember to post this!
What are you doing to beat this summer heat? We've been visiting the neighborhood pool and swimming/relaxing. It feels soooo nice! We're waiting until the evening time, after 8 to walk our dog as well which helps since its so much cooler then. Other than that hanging out in the AC!
How far along are you? 12 weeks today!

Any appointment updates? Graduated from my RE on 6/28 and yesterday had my first appt. with the CNM practice - they are wonderful! They made me feel so much better about my decision to work with them and their partnered Perinatologist. In the event I need or want to have a C-Section later on in my pregnancy, the Perinatologist will perform the surgery, so I don?t have to find another doctor last minute. He will even do a planned C-Section, which is great news since you can?t just go to him as an OB ? he is only an on-call OB and performs surgeries for the CNM practice. I have my first appt. with him next week!
How are you feeling? Pretty bad, I thought it was getting better but I still seem to only be able to focus on the nausea and my temperatures. I keep going from hot all the time to cold with chills. I?ve also been having this intense back pain on my right side but the CNM told me that the babies are slightly tilted back right now and once they pop forward it will relieve the pressure and pain. She did recommend a few chiropractors in the area.

Anything Else? Not really.
What are you doing to beat this summer heat? Movies are my best friend right now, but I?ve only been to 2 of them since becoming pregnant. It is the best ~ 2 hours of my life, at least in the moment.

Any appointment updates? I had a regular appointment Monday. The doctor didn't want to bother trying to find the two heart beats with the doppler, so he brought in the ultrasound machine. My husband couldn't make it, so I asked the doctor if I could take a video of the ultrasound for him. The doctor said he didn't care, so I got a nice little video of Baby A dancing around like a little superstar. Baby B takes after its mom and was taking an afternoon nap. I sent the video to our family and they really enjoyed it also. They referred me out for the NT scan when I am 13w6d later this month.
How are you feeling? It is still really up and down. I feel sick less often, but I'm significantly more tired all the time.
Type of twins(either mo/mo,di/di,or mo/di) mo/di
Anything Else? My mom has become a little obsessed with baby names. I don't want to hurt her feelings, but I don't really plan to let her name my babies. I tried to distract her by telling her she can decide what she wants the babies to call her and my dad. Now she is coming up with crazy baby names AND crazy Grandma names.
What are you doing to beat this summer heat? Between feeling sick and feeling tired, I haven't really wanted to go outside very much. We bought one of those small inflatable kiddie pools last year. I think I'll set it up one of these days.
