26 weeks


Pregnancy Survey Fun!
How Far Along: 26 weeks 3 days
Weight Gain: 17 lbs 
Innie or Outtie: Still hanging on to the innie status.  
Maternity Clothes: ONLY lol 
Stretch Marks: Let's not talk about it :(
Sleep: Is just a far off wish at this point. I accept it as preparation for when the babies get here and that I'll probably not get sleep again for another 18 years. 
Pregnancy Perk: People will do almost anything for me. haha. 
Embarrassing Pregnant Moment: Waddling is the worst now. Gas has gotten better, ahaha.   
Baby Purchases this week: CAN'T. STOP. BUYING. CLOTHES. but that goes for all my family, lol. 
Best quote regarding baby this week: Every single person who tells me that I look small. There's a lot of them actually! 
Gender: Still a boy and a girl :)
Movement: All the time. You can see it from the outside too now!
Food Cravings: Still chocolate milk or milkshakes or ice cream. 
Food Aversions: None. 
Labor Signs: None
How’s Mama? Holding up. My back is getting worse, but my chiropractor is trying to help. I feel like my pelvis, pubic bone, hips and lower back are goners. 
What I am looking forward to:  Next time I get to see them (4 weeks) and getting my Gestational Diabetes test overwith. Pray that I pass!!
Our Baby in Veggie/Fruit Terms: Cucumbers, although they are weighing 1lb 15oz. A little behind singleton pregnancies. 

Milestones: I want to count every week as a milestone! lol. And we got the babies nursery painted finally!!

24 weeks-6 months



Pregnancy Survey Fun!

How Far Along: 24 weeks
Weight Gain: 16 lbs :((
Innie or Outtie: Barely an Innie!! 
Maternity Clothes: Strictly maternity pants. Some shirts, but they have to be huge sleep ones. 
Stretch MarksYup. They're really starting to come out now :((
Sleep: Isn't really happening. I'm exhausted, but in so much pain that I toss and turn constantly. The Pubic Symphysis Separation is awful. 
Pregnancy Perk: I'm getting tons of attention, which this Leo loves. haha.  
Embarrassing Pregnant Moment: Gas. Waddling. Animal noises when I bend over. People asking if I'm due any day now.  
Baby Purchases this week: We bought a bunch of clothes, socks, mittens, and hats the past couple weeks. Now we're really trying to focus on the nursery decorations. 
Best quote regarding baby this week: "You don't look 6 months with twins! Your belly is just so perfectly round and smooth. It's like perfect!" - my chiropractor, whom I may have proposed to after that. 
Gender: Still a boy and a girl :)
Movement: Constant!! Baby girl is quite the busy bee and baby boy loves to kick his mom in the vagina, which is the weirdest feeling ever. 
Food Cravings: Still chocolate milk or milkshakes or ice cream. 
Food Aversions: None really, but I haven't tried steak again still.  
Labor Signs: None
How’s Mama? Feeling the time constraint of 14 weeks left until we're full term and the nursery isn't done or even hardly started. The Pubic Symphysis is killing me too, but I'm toughing it out until at least 32 weeks. Then I may not make it very much farther. 
What I am looking forward to:  Next ultrasound to see how much they have grown!
Our Baby in Veggie/Fruit Terms: An ear of corn according to my app.  

Milestones: 24 weeks so my babies are now considered viable babies and could survive outside the womb.
