Week 17 #operationhornettes




How far along: 17 weeks and 2 days!


Size of twinkies: Fruit of the week this week is turnips.  5.5" long and weighing 5 oz each.

Total weigh gain: I went to the doctor this past week unexpectedly (minor bleeding incident...everything looks great with the babies and me) so I got weighed.  I have gained an additional 4 pounds for a total of 11 pounds gained.  So I'm right on track so far.

Maternity clothes: Old Navy is killing it with their adorable maternity clothes.  That is definitely my go to store for maternity clothes.  I can get away with some regular tanks but other than that I am completely in maternity.

Sleep:  More nights than not now I am sleeping away, only to get up once to go to the bathroom.  I have such vivid and clear dreams.  I never knew this was a result of pregnancy!  The things you learn!

Gender:  Only one more week till we find out the gender of the other twinkie!!!  Will we share or won't we???

Names:  Not sharing quite yet!

Best moment this week:  I definitely have felt the babies move and hands down it is the most amazing feeling in the world.  It feels like tiny kicks.  I also got to hear the heartbeats again at the doctors.  One was 150 and the other 160.  Nice, strong heart beats.  My doctor said they are very active so it explains why I can feel them moving around.

Miss anything:  Nada.

Movement:  Heck yes and can't wait to start feeling it more and more!

Food cravings:  Water (so thirsty all.the.time), I am back on drinking coffee (finally!  I was wondering if I would ever get back the taste for it), and anything cheese related.

Anything making you sick or queasy:   P to the ork.  Ew!

Mood:  I love being pregnant.  There is absolutely no better feeling in the world. 


Looking forward to:  Not much got done on the nursery front this past week.  We really need to start getting moving on our room and the nursery.  We can't have the twinkies coming home to two depressing bedrooms now can we?
