  Hi, I’m Courtney! I’m 31 and pregnant with twins. They will be our first so I’m very excited to be starting off strong 😆
  
  feeling - pretty decent overall! Second trimester has actually brought on more sickness than I had during my first trimester so that’s no fun, but my goodness it is wonderful having my energy back!
  
  Due date - Sept 8th, but I’ll likely be induced early because of having twins
  
  Gender - unknown as of now. Tried to do the genetic testing and it came back inconclusive so now we are just waiting for the anatomy scan.
  
  Names - haven’t picked any yet since we don’t know the genders. We know we want something a little more unique, but that anyone will know how to spell when they hear it :)
  
  Made the official baby announcement? - we haven’t made an official announcement on socials yet. We’ve just been telling people as we see them and allowing the word to spread organically.
  
  What’s been consuming your brain - buying a bigger home! We currently live in an adorable 2 bedroom home, it with twins on the way (and hopefully several more children after) we definitely need to upsize to a larger home. The thought of moving right now is quite daunting, let alone if we don’t find something for another couple months and I’m too big to even pack up the house!

  How’s everyone feeling? Feeling much better, nausea gone, much more energy! 
  Due date? Sept 16th
  

  Gender? It’s a girl!! 
  

  Got the name figured out? Still workshopping names! 

  Made the official baby announcement- did you do anything special ? We did small announcements with different family groups. We decided we are not going to do anything on social media. 

  What’s been consuming your brain!? Need to get the future nursery cleaned out and put together our baby registry.

  How’s everyone feeling? 

  I am so happy to be more energetic and able to digest food (slowly but surely) again! But also am feeling like a small baby whale. My pants are too tight and sweater dresses are not flattering. 

  
  Due date? 

  Sept 16 (but holding out for Libra season) 
  
  

  Gender? 

  A strong willed and energetic girl
  
  

  Got the name figured out? 

  Evelyn Amália
  
  

  Made the official baby announcement- did you do anything special ? 

  We had been slowly telling people as it came up and my wife made a post a few weeks ago, but last week had a private ultrasound to confirm she was still kicking (literally). So, I made a short post over Easter/Passover on IG.

  
  

  What’s been consuming your brain!? 

  How my soon to be two year old is going to handle a baby sister? How am I going to survive again without sleeping? I have been trying to focus on staying calm and not worrying and finding time to exercise. I would be prepping more but we have almost everything from the first child and will just be supplementing when needed.

  How’s everyone feeling? Better, nausea is gone but feeling really tired like all the time now. Waiting for the second trimester energy to kick in. 
  Due date? September 9th 
  

  Gender? Unknown, waiting until birth to find out. 
  

  Got the name figured out? For a boy Cassius nickname Cash, for a girl we have not decided. We have two girls already so it’s been more challenging this time to find a name. 

  
  

  Made the official baby announcement- did you do anything special ? Announced on Easter. It wasn’t planned, we were all dress up nicely and our family picture was nice so we went for it with the announcement. 

  
  

  What’s been consuming your brain!? Getting a bigger vehicle, with our third baby on the way it is definitely time.
