How far along? 22 Weeks today
Total Weight Gain: 18 pounds
Maternity Clothes? Ohhhhhh yes. I've been wearing maternity clothes for quite some time now... but I actually LOVE them... shhhhhh ;)
Stretch Marks? I really don't want to answer this because I might just jinx it if I do ;)
Sleep? Last night was the first night in a LONNNNNGGGGG time that I didn't get up every two hours, or lay there uncomfortable.... I did have a craving for fruit loops at 10:00 so maybe that's why I slept so good???? I have the most amazing body pillow... the snoogle.. and that has helped so so much, but nights are still rough for me.
Best moment this week: TODAY being able to see the babies on the ultrasound!!! I SERIOUSLY LIVE for these Dr. appointments. Baby boy is now being crowded out by his sister (the tables have turned!!) and baby girl is all spread out! Both have strong heartbeats still, and are growing growing!!
Miss anything? I know I should not even admit this.. but it's coming out. I really miss tanning, and having a LIIIIIIITTTLEEE color to my skin. I live for soaking up vitamin d, and winters have always been a little rough on me... but i've got two great reasons to be whiiiiiiite. :) Dr. Pepper is number two.... I often have dreams that I am GUZZZLING two liter after two liter.
Movement: The babies are CRAZYYYY. Often times during the night they wake me up. Baby boy lives up in my ribs, and baby girl is all over the map.. especially on my bladder!
Cravings? Not really....... except for chick-fil-a, and sweets at night :)
Anything making you queasy or sick? Grease. Vegetable oil to be exact. **SHIVERRRR**
Labor signs? NOPE trying to keep it that way!
Symptoms: The past few weeks I have had TERRIBLE rib pain. and I mean TERRIBLE. My Dr. put me on a prescription heart burn medicine, told me to buy a support belly band, and put me on two days of using medicine to help my rib muscle heal from the weight that has been straining it as my belly pulls down.... since then, I haven't had that pain anywhere like I did. I also am short of breath, like all day everyday, even sitting.. like I said... the babies like to stretch out, or live up in my rib cage. I drink tons of water... which means tons of bathroom trips.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time: I'm a happy girl... except for when my husband teases me to no end... I can't take it like I used to hahaha!
Looking forward to: Going to Ogden in 10 days to see my family, but most of all to go through the temple with my sweet sweet husband, so our little family can be together forever!
Baby update
Both babies are getting big! My belly gets bigger seriously every week! Baby girl doesn't like to be seen on the ultrasound, she always is blocking her face, and baby boy is always ready for his picture taken. Things at the appointment went great today, and we don't have to go back for another 4 weeks, then we will start to go every 2 weeks.. but for now, things are great :)
We are getting so excited for these two!!!!!
