 Definitely bigger than last week!

How Far Along: 26 weeks with twins!

How big are the babies: They are somewhere around 2 pounds each. Between 10 and 15 inches.  Websites vary.

Maternity Clothes: Yes

Weight Gain: 17.4 pounds as of this morning.

Belly: Sticking out there...

Stretch Marks: Most definitely.

Sleep: A thing of the past.

Best Moment of the Week: Feeling those kicks every day/night.

Movement: All of the time.

Symptoms: Sore boobs. Acne on my neck, chest, etc. Hair growth on my belly. Major heartburn, which I feel like is causing my bad breath. And I'm gassy now. Got to love hormones!

Food Cravings: I want sugar, but I won't let myself have any.  I'm doing well with diet for gestational diabetes.

Genders: A boy and a Girl!

What I Miss: Not worrying about what I eat (deli, etc). Sleeping through the night.

What I'm Looking Forward to: Our next ultrasound, lol.

Weekly Wisdom: Snacking is good for your glucose to stay steady.

Milestones: Babies are about 2 pounds each.  Between now and 28 weeks, the babies eyes will unfuse.  They will be able to open their eyes and blink!  Baby girl was already practice blinking at our last ultrasound.

Emotions: Shawn was mean and made me bawl last night.  Once I start crying, I can't stop.  Be nice, hun!
