27+1 today!
2. Any recent appointment updates,if not when is your next appt?
My next appointment is with the OB on December 20th!
3.How much did your babies weigh at your last ultrasound?
Last week they were 2lbs 1oz and 2lbs
4. How are you feeling?
Out of breathe and uncomfortable..just counting down the weeks..
5. Best moment with the babies this week?
Just watching them take turns moving this week make all this uncomfortable feeling worth it.
6. Did you buy anything, or see anything you want to get for the babies this week?
Nope.. i hope to get some things when i go to my ob appointment next week..
7. Any thing you want to share? Any Questions?
Is anyone getting any sleep at this point? Or do you feel like the 1st trimester has come back to haunt you?
8.Anyone planning on doing Maternity photos? If so what week will you be doing them?
Im planning on doing them between 30 and 32 weeks as i havent made up my mind yet..
1. How far along are you? If your EDD , cut off week, or genders are not above please post that here so I can add it
26 + 5
2. Any recent appointment updates,if not when is your next appt? I start my birth class this Thursday, and I have my next OB appointment + I think my first NST next Thursday.
3.How much did your babies weigh at your last ultrasound? N/A on exact weight, but was told 15th %ile
4. How are you feeling? Tired, out of breath, either have a cold or pregnancy rhinitis and it is driving me CRAZY and making sleep even worse.
5. Best moment with the babies this week? I can't think of anything specific, but they're definitely moving more and letting me know they're still there, which is always comforting.
6. Did you buy anything, or see anything you want to get for the babies this week? We added a really cute lamp to the registry this week that matches our decals.
7. Any thing you want to share? Any Questions? Anyone here have experience with the class b nasal spray, Rhinocort?
8.Anyone planning on doing Maternity photos? If so what week will you be doing them? I'm not into maternity photos. I love that I'm pregnant but not in love with being pregnant and have too many body image issues to memorialize it. For everyone getting them, I hope yours turn out great!
2. Any recent appointment updates,if not when is your next appt?
At our appointment last Friday, baby B's abdomen was measuring about 2 weeks behind and had dropped to about the 3rd percentile, so we will start having weekly visits/ultrasounds to monitor her growth and cord blood flow/fluid levels. So I have an appointment scheduled every week through the beginning January, and then we will see if she has grown enough to go back to our biweekly spots.
3.How much did your babies weigh at your last ultrasound?
Baby A was 1lb 5oz and Baby B was 1lb 3oz
4. How are you feeling?
Feeling nervous about the possible growth issue with baby b. But also hopeful because the doctor said she could catch up on her own. Also, my girls are just 10% different from each other in overall size, so as long as they stay within 20% of each other it is good news! Other than that, feeling super emotional and my back/hips are hurting and making it hard to walk normally. I feel like the waffle is starting! And sleep has been rough the last week or so!
5. Best moment with the babies this week?
Seeing them facing each other during the ultrasound- so cute!! And feeling them move more!
6. Did you buy anything, or see anything you want to get for the babies this week?
We bought our cribs and are hoping to get them set up in the nursery this weekend!
7. Any thing you want to share? Any Questions?
Anyone else having growth issues with their twins? Also, at 25 weeks, I don't know how much I "should" be feeling them move. It's definitely more ag night and sporadically throughout the day that I feel them- sound normal?
8.Anyone planning on doing Maternity photos? If so what week will you be doing them?
No photos for me!
Your movement observations sound totally normal to me BTW. They move around more when you're less active so if you're on your feet a lot during the day you're unlikely to feel much then.
1. How far along are you? If your EDD , cut off week, or genders are not above please post that here so I can add it
27 weeks today!
2. Any recent appointment updates,if not when is your next appt?
actually feeling pretty well today.
I bought a changing table for the nursery. Still no cribs.
@momma6angels11 - I have never had a low lying placenta. Just have an anterior placenta on the right.
2. Any recent appointment updates,if not when is your next appt?I had an ultrasound on Monday.The cyst on baby b's brain is completely gone and the enlarged ventricle has remained the same size as 2 weeks ago, so that's good. My OB said he is not worried about it at all, but they have to tell us if the measurement is 1.0 cm or above (it's exactly 1.0)
3.How much did your babies weigh at your last ultrasound? 2 lbs and 1 lb 13 oz
4. How are you feeling? Eh...I still get nauseous every evening and my back is KILLING me.
5. Best moment with the babies this week? The ultrasound on Monday.
6. Did you buy anything, or see anything you want to get for the babies this week? No, but I dug out all our newborn and 3 month clothes. So tiny! And I sanitized all the cloth diapers. Not sure how that will go with twins though...
7. Any thing you want to share? Any Questions? Is anyone using a pregnancy support belt? If so, which one and does it help??
8.Anyone planning on doing Maternity photos? If so what week will you be doing them? I wanted to, but I feel like I'm too big and past the point of being a cute pregnant lady. Maybe we still will.
PS. I was totally going to do cloth diapers until I found out we were having twins...
Yeah, sorry, environment.
At my birth class last night I was chatting with a MoM who had hers spontaneously and she mentioned that. Mine were not spontaneous so I am sort of upset to hear this and freaking out a bit.
Dont stress
——
on another note, we did the impossible!!! We have names for two babies!!
Mason (either Cole or Carter)
and
Tessa Cassidy (Cassidy after DD’s middle name)
and their room is done being painted & I ordered a bunch of clothes tonight! It freaked me out that at 26 weeks these two could be coming veryyy soon.
27 weeks
2. Any recent appointment updates, if not when is your next appt?
Pretty good. Feeling frustrated I can't walk far and getting a lot of rib pain while I sleep. But can't complain too much.
Haven't bought anything else, I think we're almost set. But still need to figure out the by-the-bed sleeping situation.
@vflux33 I think that sounds like BS too. I hope you don't let it get to you. Everyone's body reacts to pregnancy differently, regardless of the circumstances, right?
@syssa-o I love the name Tessa!
Is anyone else nesting hardcore? Past two nights I was up all night organizing and cleaning and driving my husband crazy! “Sorry, babe..this pantry HAD to be reorganized before the twins arrive”
@vflux33 I want to know just how they would even come to that conclusion? There are so many other uncontrollable variables in each pregnancy, I would think it would be rather difficult to accurately say that..
and an “amen” on the cloth diapering front. I’m sure there are disposable ones that aren’t AS bad? And I’ve considered cloth once the dust settles with the twins...Hopefully that happens before too long?
I don't know how that conclusion was reached, yeah. I'm glad you all think it's BS because it's such a weird nonspecific annoying thing to think about... again, I don't think she was trying to freak me out she probably just assumed we hadn't used IF treatments, I don't know...
So in our birth class last week, it occurred to MH and I that all the comfort measures that other moms get in regular L & D rooms like showers, music, and birthing balls etc. etc. probably aren't available in an OR... have you guys thought about that? I'm going to try to get more info specific about our hospital's policies, but that sucks!
I plan on asking my OB on Wednesday about this and im going to ask if I could get a dry epidural placed instead of actually having the meds..so hopefully I can labor around the room instead of being stuck in the bed.. of course all of this also depends on babies positions and baby A's placenta.
Caleb Cash & Arlo Vonn
(Cash is after Johnny while Vonn is short for Vonnegut of which DH is a big fan)
Having them named makes it feel so much more personal for me. And I think for DH too. It's just nice to call them by their name when talking to and about them. Instead of "thing 1" and "thing 2" like we started off with!
