Six days away from five months along. I am feeling both of the babies little kicks inside my belly and I love it! People are always telling me "Wait till they start kicking your ribs! You won't be enjoying it then!" ......I think to myself, thanks for that. It's just like when people find out you're having your first child/children they say horrible things like " OH HO HO! Enjoy your time together while you can because once the babies are here you can kiss your relationship goodbye!" It's like JEEZ! Way to ruin an awesome thing! Just because your lives are miserable doesn't mean that you have to wish it upon mine! People that give advise are annoying. What happened to the days where you just gave good wishes for the miracle of a baby/babies. Sometimes I forget that I am pregnant and then I see myself in the mirror. HA!
I am enjoying this time even though it is getting harder to bend down due to sharp lower back pain, even walking and shifting my weight from one leg to another hurts the back of my hip disks or whatever they are. Now I know what they mean when they say child bearing hips, mine are getting ready to deliver two babies and I can feel it! Even though it causes some discomforts I kindof like complaining about them ;) I haven't given birth yet but I am already feeling that motherly instinct, even when they are causing me pain I like to know that they are in there wiggling and stretching their little arms and legs around. They are small nudges for now, I will keep a kick journal so that I can see for myself if it is really that horrible towards the end to ruin it for every other pregnant lady I conversate with.

Baby bump one week away from five months! I think i'm doing pretty goood for carrying two in there!

My sister got me this shirt for mothers day, I liked:)

18 weeks

I'm 18 weeks now!
I had an ultrasound today and baby A is 8 ounces and baby B is 7 ounces! They are both growing strong:) I am feeling bigger everyday, I am also still staying strong in waiting to know what the genders of the twins are untill they are born. I have been feeling them move a little lately, yesterday baby A had the hiccups. It took me a while to figure out they were hiccups but once I did I liked it more:) Baby B was wiggling so much during the ultrasound today that the nurse had trouble getting measurements because he or she wouldn't stay still:) I am lathering with extra virgin olive oil everyday despite what my midwife says which is I can't prevent or cause myself stretch marks. We'll see about that.
