How far along are you? 22 weeks exactly
How big is baby? Not sure - they haven't been measured since the u/s on April 14
Maternity clothes? Yes - oh, so much more comfortable!
Weight – Loss or Gain? As of my last appointment on April 20, I was up 14lbs. When I asked Dr. D about recommended weight gain (since I was overweight to start), she said my weight gain has been good so far. She did recommend that I gain 24lbs by 24 weeks, because after 24 weeks, the babies are taking up most of the room, thus I won't be able to eat as much.
Stretch marks? I am on the lookout for them... so far, I don't think I have any new ones.
Sleep: Depends on the night. Some nights I can't get comfortable at all and wake up every time I change positions, some nights I have to use the bathroom 3+ times a night, but the some nights I sleep heavenly!
Best moment this week: Seeing the babies again on u/s - this time Baby B was wonderful and cooperated for all the pictures!
Any Movement?: YES!! Yay! I'm feeling movement pretty regularly now, and the movement is noticeably stronger! I think Jim even was able to feel a kick from the outside today! Awww!
Food Cravings?: Nope - not really.
Food Aversions?: Nope
Belly Button in or out? In - though getting more shallow.
What do you miss: Sleeping on my stomach or back. Breathing normally - even just sitting still, sometimes it feels like I can't get a good breath!
What are you looking forward to?: Spending time with family this weekend! Happy Wedding Day Kristen and Graduation Day Paul!
What was the BEST part of this week? When Jim felt one of the babies move!
What was the WORST part of this week? Nothing really, though working always qualifies!
Milestones: Getting so close to vitality day (V-day) - if the babies are born after 24 weeks, there is a higher chance of survival with intense medical intervention of course. I am hopeful that I will make it to 24 weeks and beyond with no complications!
