27 weeks!


How Far Along: 27 weeks - officially in the third trimester!!

Size of Babies: Head of cauliflower

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 30-ish lbs

Genders: Two girls!!

Movement: Yes! I wish I knew what they were doing in there. Sometimes I feel like they are doing flips. It is still the coolest feeling and makes me smile every time. =)

Sleep: Sleep is okay.  

Maternity Clothes: Yes!

Symptoms: I hesitate to say this, but I have only gotten sick once in the past week. Maybe I've turned a corner?! Rib/back pain. Tingling in my left hand some mornings. Leg/calf cramps. The top of my belly button has popped out. It is the strangest looking thing!

Aversions: Nothing specific I can think of. 

Cravings: Ice cold water and just food in general. Fruit. 

What I miss: Not a thing. I've waited too long for this and I'm grateful for everything I'm experiencing.

Best Moment this week: I went to a consignment sale with my friend Rachel and found a glider that is just perfect for the nursery! I was so happy to have found it because that was the last piece of furniture we needed for the nursery. And, my first baby shower was over the weekend. It was WAY beyond what I ever dreamed it would be! Will definitely share more soon!

What I'm looking forward to: Organizing all the wonderful gifts we were blessed with at our shower and continuing to work on the nursery.

    Sound like everyone is! I guess it's just common.
    Can't wait to see your shower pictures!

  2. I love all the movement! I bet it is so cool with twins. They are doing somersaults together in there!

  3. You have TWO HEADS OF CAULIFLOWER IN YOUR BELLY! I can't imagine feeling two kick around in there...so cool.

    You really look great...definitely don't look like you're carrying two babies. :)

    You're getting close!

    Love you!
