How I’m Feeling/Updates:
And I’m still huge.
I have been feeling pretty bad today. Really sore lower back, a little cramping this morning, going to the loo 3 times (and not pee – TMI?? lol), exhausted and just feeling poorly. I talked to the midwives and they think I may just have a little bug and am supposed to : rest, drink water & empty my bladder. Come tomorrow if I’m still feeling like this, I will be getting proper monitoring because 2 days of it just isn’t right.
The girls rooms are exactly where they were a week ago, except now I have some lovely tissue poms to hang from the ceiling from my shower this weekend! I’m super excited about it – and so thankful that they were so creative / thoughtful!
My RLS (restless leg syndrome) is still around. Last night I ended up the spare room again so I’m thinking switching the mattresses is in order ASAP so I don’t always leave my poor husband in the middle of the night.
Pretty much I just need to make it a few more weeks so these girls can get some more weight on them. Please pray for us!
Baby Movement:
The girls are now literally all over my belly. lol. There really isn’t much more room except to go out forward but my belly is stretched big time.
Weight Gain:
I started at 127 before I got pregnant – but was trying to get down to 125. So I consider my “goal” weight to be my “start” weight so that I can judge what I’m gaining based off of where I want to be afterwards.
8 weeks: 129 lbs
17 weeks: 134 lbs
18 weeks: 135.6 lbs
19 weeks: 136.2 lbs
20 weeks: 137.4 lbs
21 weeks: 137.8 lbs
22 weeks: 139.2 lbs
23 weeks: 141.1 lbs
24 weeks: 144.0 lbs
25 weeks: 145.8 lbs
26 weeks: 147.4 lbs
27 weeks: 149.5 lbs
28 weeks: 152.0 lbs
29 weeks: 154.0 lbs
30 weeks: 154.6 lbs
31 weeks: 157.8 I gained 3.2 lbs this week
Total: 30.8 lbs
I’m a little worried about my sudden weight gain this week. 3lbs seems like quite a bit for one week. Maybe it’s because I weighed myself in the evening rather than the morning…..
Cravings:
Still no real cravings. Not really okay with that but what can ya do.
Gender:
2 sweet, bouncy girls!
I used to leave my husband in the middle of the night too! During the last month or two, the couch was just so much more comfortable than my bed…I loved the back support. I’m sorry you’re feeling poorly!!

Sorry you are feeling so crummy.
Here’s hoping those baby’s stay put for another few weeks; though I’m dying to “meet” them!!
