THEY MOVED!!!

I'm not talking about moving your home, or anyone else. I'm talking babies! Not just jumping around on the screen where I see them. Actual rolling around in my belly. Now you can say I'm not even 13 weeks, theres no way I am feeling babies move yet...but let me tell you this. I have been pregnant before and I KNOW what baby movement feels like. Its not indigestion or gas or simply muscle spasms. These little ones were duking it out! And it was the strangest feeling. One I am used to. It moves, it rolls, it punches, it does summersaults. Sometimes they sit on your sciatic nerve or kick your bladder so that you pee a little bit. That I am used to. But It felt like these little buggers were taking running leaps at each other and doing belly thumps the way grown men do when they score a point on the field. Never has anything been so strange or awe inspiring. For the first time it has really hit me...these little guys(and I say guys only because of the way they acted this morning. I don't know that girls would act like sumo wrestlers) are REAL and they have amazing Daddys who cannot wait to meet them. I wish that they could experience this movement. I can't wait until they come out for the ultra-sound in december. By then they will be able to feel them kick & how fun will that be! I can't wait to give them these wondeful little gifts. Now remember that, cause in a few months I will be whining about how heavy they are and how they won't stop moving or kicking my bladder. When they make me pee myself or vomit I won't sound as awe inspired, so when that happens...remind me of this day.

Moving...

An opportunity to live next door to my parents opened up, and being super close to my family I couldn't pass on it. So I will be moving the weekend before Thanksgiving. However, I'm not supposed to lift anything...so don't ask me how I am going to pack and move....because I'm really not sure yet! But I will figure it out. I have my first trimester screening down in San Diego today, so I will let you know how that goes once I know!

1st trimester DONE!

I'm officially in my second trimester - YAY!!!

We know what the problem is!!!

Now, if only there was a way to fix it!

So apparently I have a weak blood vessel in/on my cervix. And when there is undue pressure on my abdomen( pushing a grocery cart, working out, being on my feet too much, picking Brynn up, coughing my lungs out with a cold) it bleeds. Nothing can be done about it. It's making me slightly anemic and will only get worse (JOY!). But its not a HUGE deal I just have to keep an eye on it...so watch it I will....

ugh

We had some complications over the weekend. I got to spent Friday night in the ER and was on bedrest all weekend again(boooO!) But the babies are ok and my cervix appears closed so the doctors didn't seem concerned that I was gushing blood. And since it has stopped I am no longer concerned. I am however concerned that I am big as a house. Here is a peek at me 11weeks pregnant with twins.

The babies

Baby A & Baby B are measuring 11.0 and 11.1 weeks respectively. The doctor hasn't changed my due date from this...but obviously the little buggers are growing like weeds! They didn't give me any pictures today, so you are saved the peek at the gummi bears...but they were dancing around like maniacs. She had trouble getting the fetal heartbeat not because it wasn't strong but because the boogers just wouldn't stay still!!!

As for me, I am feeling GREAT (except you know, i fall asleep at like 8:15 at night). And of course I am ALWAYS starving and feeling a little bit like a sow at the moment. I will be glad to get back to yoga and do some swimming. I feel like such a SLUG lately! I need to go get a snoogle cause my back has been killing me...and I KNOW I need to stop procrastinating and just run over to BabiesRUs but I just can't seem to remember when it is feasible to go there. I always think about it after the kids are asleep or when I wake up and have to go to work. Oh well. I will get one soon.

Ok, well I should get back to work...

Its Monday Again
