14 weeks today!
My body is in pure and physical pain, I can't sleep at night and I feel huge already. I've been alternating through 3 pairs of jeans and luckily I've been able to add some shorts here and there. All the weight I lost kicking butt in Body Combat is slowly returning. Only 1 day of severe nausea and that's it. Girls are still super excited and I think we have a boy name and a girl name picked out, but we are letting them settle into our ways. I had another ultrasound last week to look for Down Syndome and Trisomy ~ both tests came out good, but have to go back for a 2nd blood test to put me in a "Low Risk" or a "High Risk" category. Everytime we tried to get a profile shot, the baby gave us the cold shoulder :) I got to see it in 3-D, something they definitely did NOT have when I was pregnant with the girls. Heard the heart beat again, 170 bpm....you decide, some say a fast hear rate is a sign it's a girl!
Oh yeah, did you know that at the age of 35 you are considered "Advanced Maternal Age". Genetic Counseling was quite interesting with Mick last week. I found it very informative.
Girls are still SUPER excited and even naming the barbie dolls the names we have picked out!! We constantly have to remind them "Do NOT use those names around other people, we need to wait".
We are also closing on our house next Friday! A little nervous, ok a lot, but really excited to finally have a place to call our own. It's been 5 years since we moved back from Denver and here's to hoping we have better luck this time around!
If you want to keep up with my monthly appointments and what's going on, keep checking back on the blog site. Stay tuned for month 4 in a couple of weeks......
