ksgsmu · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 26 weeks

2. How are you feeling? If I don't over do it I am ok but too much walking or even sitting is painful. My iron supplements are making me puke so going to try a different one today and hopefully that helps!

3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? I see both MFM and OB this week.. hoping they are non eventful!

4. Any new or exciting news to share? We got the cribs delivered last week and wow it is just all so surreal!

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use? I will use the twin joovy roo that I can pop their Chicco keyfit 30 carseats in for a while but for our big long term stroller I have the double city select ( tandem)

jaytee16 · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 23w,4d

2. How are you feeling? Pretty decent overall. The heartburn has been brutal lately, and sleeping is hit or miss, aches and pains but those are usually pretty manageable.

3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? Nothing until Nov 6, this is the longest stretch between appts I've had yet!

4. Any new or exciting news to share? Nothing new, the babies are so active these days! It's a pretty amazing feeling, and sometimes a little alien-esque, haha, but it reassures me (especially in this long stretch between appts) to be able to feel them moving around so much.

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use? I'm stoked, we got the Baby Jogger City Select (tandem) Still debating whether to get the car seat adapters for it or the Double Snap and Go.

RayRay007 · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 35
2. How are you feeling? So.much.pelvic.pain.
3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? Nope. Next appt is Friday. Our last one was 1.5 weeks ago. Apparently our doctor doesn't think we need to be seen too often, which is a good thing I guess.
4. Any new or exciting news to share? We have decided to book a c/s if we get that far without going into labour on our own. Don't know that date yet but should soon.

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use?
We have the dbl SNG and the BOB revolution duallie.

mrsrichey11 · October 2014

1. 27+6

2. So. So. SO. Tired. I'm tired, achy, and just bleh.

3. GD follow up tomorrow, growth scan and regular ob appointment next Wednesday. Nothing too exciting on that front!

4. Baby Related: Right now it has been decided that the babies will be delivered via c-section on December 30th (37 weeks) unless they decide to come before then. So they better be comfortable! Not so baby related, but still kind of: We are buying a house! Finally! We are putting in our offer tonight and as long as everything goes well and it is accepted/inspection goes well we should have the keys by Thanksgiving! We did a walk-through on Saturday and I've already been planning the nursery in my head. The living room and our master bedroom need to be painted, but that is the absolute last thing on my mind because I want the nursery ready to go right away! I can't wait!

QOTW: We have a double snap n' go. I can't decide what else to get though. I'm stuck between the double City Mini and the Baby Trend sit n' stand. We'll just have to see where our budget is at once we decide to purchase another stroller.

morrkim · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 38 weeks

2. How are you feeling? Exhausted, hip and back pain, dizziness and inconsistent contractions

I must be a wuss or something because I feel that "Wall" coming up very soon. Kierri (Baby A) is lying super low and her crotch kicks are making me pelvis even more uncomfortable.

See my thread about carpal tunnel to see how my hand mobility is going. And I walk so much at work that my feet hate the floor by the end of the day.

I have an OB appt this Thursday and a MFM appt next Monday. Going to talk about maternity leave plans more to have a better idea of planning time off to tell my principal. Also going to see if my OB can certify me for a temporary handicap placard because walking with this pinched sciatic nerve pain is no bueno (it's been pinched long term since July without recovery).

Good news...baby shower #1 is in 12 days and I can't wait to see my entire family!

We're starting with a Double Snap N Go and possibly getting a double stroller depending on funds available when they're born, but definitely the Snap N Go.

PeaceofKia · October 2014

@morrkim does the ready to grow accommodate 2 carseats at the same time?! I found one for a great price on Craigslist but wanted to make it sure it could accommodate 2 infant seats.

diz1313 · October 2014

I'm at 32 weeks 2 days. Feeling pretty good considering I am huge and the girls are heavy. My feet are permenently swollen now, but I don't mind as long as I don't have to wear shoes. Ha! Acid reflux is my constant friend.... but the babies are growing well, so I am happy. Next appointment isn't until November 6th so no news there. Some friends threw me a surprise baby sprinkle on Sunday, so that was fun. We will use a Joovy twin Roo with Graco Classic Connent carriers and later switch to the MacLauren Twin Techno.

RayRay007 · October 2014

GL on Thursday @morrkim‌ !

studentnurse2011 · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 17 weeks

2. How are you feeling? Sooo tired! And the reflux is no fun. But still much better than first tri!

3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? OB Wednesday... will likely be boring because my first MFM appointment is coming up.

4. Any new or exciting news to share? No

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use? Not sure yet

courtlandmatthew · October 2014

Just about 24 weeks. I have an OB appointment with an ultrasound on Thursday. Just got bad acid reflux- I didn't have it with either of my other pregnancies- it definitely is no fun! Starting to get stuff organized for the baby room but I won't set up cribs etc until my current daughter moves out of that room.

I will be using the britax b ready for the twins at first- I already have it and love the stroller. I will have 4 kids under 3 so I also have a Zee two with toddler seat so I can take 3 of them in the stroller- good thing my son likes to walk!

Mrs.McIrish · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 34+5.

2. How are you feeling? My entire body just hurts most days and I am not sleeping much...

3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? I had my weekly BPP today and the girls are happy. A is really low in my pelvis and B is way up under my rib. So pain everywhere!

4. Any new or exciting news to share? We will induce on 11/19 if they don't come out earlier on their own...23 days

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use?
I am using the dsng with infant car seats and then will get a city mini GT next spring (or whenever they outgrow the infant seats)

veggie0420 · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 9w4d
2. How are you feeling? tired and nauseous
3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? just had 2nd u/s last friday, and went great! still almost the same size and growing as they should!
4. Any new or exciting news to share? no

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use? not sure yet, but looking for tandem travel system

morrkim · October 2014

@PeaceofKia‌ yes. We liked the look of it because of all the options. We also have a toddler so we can have her sit or put 2 carseats in.

Bigboneded · October 2014

1. 27 weeks
2. Feeling pretty good. Carpal tunnel is worse. I lost my job, so no more 12 hour shifts!!! Yay :-)
3. Just did 1 hour GTT and got my TDaP.
4. Graduated to every 2 week appointments :-) so will see OB Monday, excited to get in more often.

QOTW: We got an in line double snap in with 2 infant seats, and a MacLaren umbrella style side by side. Excited we found a multiples sale for the bigger items :-)

kefttsc · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 25w3d

2. How are you feeling? Yesterday was a good day, but I'm feeling emotionally exhausted from not being able to do things in my normal routine. Taking the laundry downstairs is a new adventure due to this belly...and you can forget lugging it upstairs.

3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? My next appointment is in 13 days and I'll have my GD test and another ultrasound. They started measuring amniotic fluid last time and that all looked good so I was praised for my water intake. I've been trying really hard to drink a gallon a day and it's paying off. They didn't send the glucola home with me...he said to request it as soon as I arrived, drink it down, and then since twin ultrasounds take a little longer, I'd have the hour in between before my blood was drawn. Looking forward to those results so I can put another test behind me!

4. Any new or exciting news to share? My baby shower is this weekend and I'm quite nervous. I didn't do well with wedding showers either....being the center of attention is not my thing.

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use? I'm abnormally excited about my City Select Double. If I don't receive the car seat adapters at the shower, I'll be buying those next week.

Siona1976 · October 2014

How many weeks are you? 37w6d

2. How are you feeling? In the last 5 days I've never been in so much pain - all over. Carpal tunnel, swollen feet, false labor, my back has been acting up, the punches and kicks they have been giving me are growing stronger and more intense. I'm not a happy camper.

3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? Nope, they are getting evicted on Wednesday

4. Any new or exciting news to share? We decided to hire a mother's helper to get us through the first few months (we have no family near by). I'm so excited!!

QOTW: Joovy Twin Roo and then City-Mini side by side

ds1247 · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? will be 19 on Thursday
2. How are you feeling? have some hip pain but very manageable.
3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? next Tuesday 11/4 is our A/S!
4. Any new or exciting news to share? nothing really new, just waiting.

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use? Graco DuoGlider Classic Connect Stroller

MissEm15 · October 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 25w today!
2. How are you feeling? I'm def. getting slower & sleeping is being interupted more and more. Really tho, I'm doing well.
3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? Last Friday I had my 24w u/s & got to see the boys in 3d! They are so freaking adorable already. I can tell they look a little different. Next week is glucose test.
4. Any new or exciting news to share? My first shower is Saturday!!! I could not be more excited. I get to see my sister & niece, who live in texas, and all my friends are coming into town. I'm going to be so emotional lol.

Qotw: what stroller are you planning to use? We are buying a cousin's Chicco Contours double stroller w/ the pumkin seat attachements for $100! I'm not gonna lie.. I still keep looking for the City Select on craigslist tho I mean.. one for me, one for DH right?! I also bought the Bob Duallie, but it sadly doesn't fit in my trunk.

MissEm15 · October 2014

I haven't yet. I'm a tad stressed about it!!! I know that at least a few of them would appreciate spa sets, but not really the others. I feel that's a bit generic for my sister considering how amazing she has been. She's been the ring leader and has done the most amazing amount of work you have ever seen.

I think I'm going to hit HomeGoods for a few spa sets and then get extra stuff for my BIL's GF who is in charge of food and my sister who has done so much extra. I'll give them those on the side......
