    EDD/Weeks + days: 8/31, 12+6
    How are you feeling? A lot better this week. Energy is coming back and I’ve only had a few bouts of nausea and bloating. Starting to feel like I can’t eat very much in one sitting though.Β 
    How many babies? Two!
    Identical/Fraternal? OB is pretty sure identical since they are mono/do but NIPT will confirmΒ 
    Team πŸ’—πŸ’™πŸ’š? Finding out!Β 
    Questions? I initially saw a CNM who has since referred me to an OB since it’s twins. My first OB appt is on 2/28. What should I be asking them? I have no real concerns yet aside from a timeline of scans and exams etc.Β 
    Advice: I’ll take some haha. But really - self care! Get sleep when you can!Β 
    GTKY Favorite movie: this is such a hard question. Lately I’ve been more of a TV show person. Been watching Ozarks with the family and Colony. Alone I watch random shows like Greys, Outlander, Witcher, Station 19 etc.Β

    @jellie603 I'm fine with it! I'm surprised that there are no others in your group, there seems to be so many of us in August! How far along are you?

    @jellie603 that's surprising that you have no multiples in July. You are more than welcome here! Give us the scoop! Welcome!

    @kbtt2022 @bridgiebee82 thank you so much!! I know, I am surprised there aren't any in my July BMB ad so few in June. There are so many here in August, it is crazy!

    Here's my scoop:

    EDD/Weeks + days: EDD is July 26th but my midwife said my goal is to make it to 36 weeks and can deliver at 37. So looking at end of June or beginning on July delivery. I'm 18w0d today!

    How are you feeling? Large. I'm feeling very large haha. Feeling like I was when I was like 6 months along with my first. I also have a somewhat unpopular opinion but I'm one of those women who hates being pregnant haha. So I am just extra annoyed and grumpy.

    How many babies? 2

    Identical/Fraternal? They are di/di - we will do the bloodwork when they are born to see if they are identical or not.Β 

    Team πŸ’—πŸ’™πŸ’š? The NIPT says chances are high we are pink/pink but will confirm with AS in a few weeks!

    Questions? Are you all registering for all of the twin gear? These are #2 and #3 for us so we aren't sold on getting all this new stuff. We'll do the double stroller, PNP with double bassinets, and maybe a twin baby carrier. But beyond that I'm not sold on things like the Twin Z Pillow.Β 

    Advice: Move your body! I know we have to be extra aware of our heartrate with multiples but I'm finding I feel so much better when I exercise. I've moved from HIIT (pre-pregnancy) to some strength training, stretching and walking.Β 

    GTKY Favorite movie: This is so hard to pick! Here is a short list:
    Any and all horror movies. The Scream franchise is my favorite. But I'm pretty sure I've seen every horror movie out there.Β 
    Donnie Darko
    Super Troopers
    I'm a sucker for nostalgic-to-me movies. Think Bring It On, American Pie, Joy Ride.

    @bridgiebee82 I love that it is versatile and the pillow height is perfect for my neck. I typically sleep with it between knees and supporting my back- I pull both ends nice and tight so it is supportive. Then when I want to roll to the other side because that's the type of sleeper I am, I can just roll and hug it the other way and kind of rest my belly on it. If I want to prop up in bed for tv I just rollΒ  it into a coil and it works well.

    This is very random and I do apologize, my fiancΓ© and I are going to elope and get married before twins come and throw a big reception after they are born. Very nervous about this but excited to marry my best friend!
