19 weeks woah!

Today is 19 weeks! Totally woah halfway thru pregnancy! WOW!

I think i figured out why i dont feel baby B as much, for starters he changed positions from where he hung out before, he is now kinda middle to left side totally behind his placenta...every once in a blue moon i feel him wiggle...his sister however makes herself very known. She likes to dance/tickle my cervix and she also gets the hiccups like every day! How fun!

Picked up some more for IMs xmas baby box...hope they like it :)

Too scared to get on the scale...i was starving yesterday to the point I said screw it if I gain 5 lbs this week at least I wont be hungry lol

First midwife appt tomorrow YIPPEE!

I feel so great

I am sure I am gonna get my ass kicked later by these babies, but for now, i just feel great. I dont even feel pregnant half the time (minus the insane heartburn!). I am enjoying it while I can though...

I can poke the babies and feel where they are. I am sure they get annoyed by it. The little girl likes to dance on my cervix. The boy i only feel once in a blue moon, He is much higher up and since both placentas are anterior I think he is mostly hidden behind them. Sometimes it makes me worry, but then he moves or something and I am ok.

19 weeks on wed. Wow it is flying by!

So excited!

Tonight is our "Meeting with the midwives"

I am so stoked! We met our doula on Monday and she is the most awesome person ever! Can't wait for our next meeting. She had her 7 week old with her I couldn't see her cause she was in the sling the whole time but i though that was sweet

Another plus was that my IM took me and my kids out for lunch after the doula meeting YAY! That makes me feel great! I know it is a small thing, but it ment alot to me. They are taking me out for dinner tonight too...YAY!

Anyway. Another battle with the scale this morning...it said 239. UGH. 3 lbs. I don't feel quite so bad though, because the 18 week email said average weight gain for 18 weeks is 10-13 lbs. I would be outta my mind if I had gained that much this far. Now with MY kids, I had, but I was much lighter then...and knowing that I started out at 245 (then down to 236 after morning sickness) this time around, I KNOW I cannot justify gaining 40 lbs this time. When you are heavy to start it is better to gain 20 lbs or less because you just don't NEED to gain the extra weight...so I think I am on track.

0-20 weeks: 5 Lbs
20-30 weeks: 10 lbs
30-40 weeks: 10 lbs

That is my goal and so far I am on track. I figure I will give myself some leeway and say no more than 30 lbs total. Knowing about 20 of that should be baby related (since there are 2 and they will make up about 10 lbs of that alone then add in fluid placenta and BOOB)

If i could just stop eating a family size bag of M&Ms every night I would be ok.....

I dream of you





I waaaaaaant these boots.
I found them on amazon for $160

I was going to order the short version from REI the other day, but when I went back to get them at the amazing price of 109, they were gone....

:(

all I want for christmas is Uggs....and jeans to wear them with. Hopefully the jeans I ordered from Old Navy fit this time...the last 3 pairs I have ordered have been too big and too small...ugh
