Update on Mommy

I also had my doctor's appointment last Friday. From last visit to this one I gained 1lbs. so my total is at 17lbs. Since the babies are on target for their weight my doctor said the weight gain is just fine. I do need to put on about 20lbs in the next 13 weeks so my cravings for Bosc Pears and Cole Slaw (not together) better turn into something with a few more calories. My blood pressure is perfect and my cervix is completely closed so overall doing just fine. The biggest concern for me now is Preterm Labor.

Daddy-to-be is doing great too! I think I found a few more gray hairs but I blame that on the Steelers not making it to the playoffs.

PS: This picture is at 20 weeks, New Year's Eve I swear I own other clothes than that grey turtleneck! Thanks mom for the necklace!!!!!!

21 Week Baby Update

Hello everyone, sorry for the delay in posting we have been so busy over the past few weeks with so many things it has been hard to keep up. I take it as a blessing as I am still working fulltime and hope to do so as long as possible.

Now for the update on the babies. While I was hoping to be able to announce if they were identical or not, unfortunately we were told that they wouldn't be able to figure it out until they are born, I think we can wait but I am curious as to how they figure it all out. I keep meaning to google search I will let you know if I remember.

Baby A: He is currently sitting low and to the right almost directly on mommy's bladder. He weighs 15oz.

Baby B: This little guy has traded places with Baby C and is on my left side in the middle. He weighs 14oz.

Baby C: And last but not least he is on top of Baby A sort of in the middle but very active. He weighs 14oz.

The weights are consistent with a single birth so we are doing just fine. In the past few days I have started to feel more specific movement in the feet and hand department. I was eating potato soup the other night and they either LOVED it or hated it, either way they were moving a lot for that meal.
