How big are the babies: About 3.31 pounds according to: http://www.babycenter.com/average-fetal-length-weight-chart
Maternity Clothes: Yes
Weight Gain: 22-23 pounds. I'm retaining serious water now. My feet and ankles swell horribly by bedtime. I have no ankles. :-( Each baby should gain around 1/2 a pound a week now until they are born. That's 1 pound of baby a week!
Belly: Sticking out there. I'm measuring about due for if I were having 1 baby. My father in law said my belly was huge, but then he went on to say I'm all belly. He said I hadn't gained anywhere else. That made me feel good.
Stretch Marks: Most definitely.
Sleep: When I do sleep, I sleep well. Its the waking up a million times a night to pee that's not so fun.
Best Moment of the Week: Watching the nursery being built. It's getting there. The only things left are siding, painting, carpet, and trim. That's it and we're done. Then I get to fill it!
Movement: All of the time.
Symptoms: EXTREMELY Sore boobs. Taking off my bra makes me cry. Acne on my neck, chest, etc. Hair growth on my belly. Major heartburn. Better not forget the gas. Shawn likes to poke fun at how gassy I am. I still love you Shawn! Got to love hormones!
Food Cravings: Sweets, but I can't have them.
Genders: A boy and a Girl!
What I Miss: Not worrying about what I eat (deli, etc). Sleeping through the night. Not waddling. Having energy. Being able to walk through a store.
What I'm Looking Forward to: Meeting the babies and getting the nursery finished.
Weekly Wisdom: Naps are great!
Milestones: Babies should be 3.3 pounds each now. I read that babies are in the fetal position because there isn't enough room to stretch out anymore. With 2, I imagine they haven't been able to stretch for a few weeks now.
Emotions: Still crying over everything. I also kept hugging Shawn yesterday for no reason. He was fighting with the pond pump and I just wanted to hug him. Which I did many times and told him I just love him! I know, I'm sappy at the moment...
