Hey guys, just sitting here at almost 34 weeks (tomorrow). Having lots of contractions so my OB's prediction of not making it to my RCS in 3 weeks might be true. So I'm just trying to take it easy and keep these girls cooking. H is taking his paternity leave starting this weekend so that he can be off with the older two since school ends Friday.
My bump is out of control lately and moves around like its possessed. Here's a pic from above.

E is 10.5 months. Still crawling, cruising and working on taking steps. She's a little madam for sure and always makes me laugh and tests my patience in ways I never thought possible, and her toddler years haven't even begun! She's cute though so she makes up for it a hundred times over.

I would like to add a request for update from requiressnacks !
Hello there :-) I'm 15w1d today and still feeling very, very good. I don't know if IF has altered my perception of "pain"/"discomfort" etc or if I really have it that good. Constipation and gas are bitches but otherwise cruising along.
We know Baby B (if I'm looking down at my stomach, the one on the left) is a BOY. We knew we had at least one boy from the Verifi testing and the OB (and us) could see B pretty well last U/S. It is still so early and he's not certain with A but believes she is a girl! Not painting nurseries or buying things yet but still exciting to think of them as real babies and not blobs of DNA.
Assuming boy/girl, we have our names picked out: Bodhi (not sure of middle name, maybe Rain) and Serafina Rose.
Obligatory bathroom selfie of my bump mixed with gas and such:
Hi GKU!!! No real updates for me. I am 12w1d and very anxiously awaiting an ultrasound tomorrow. I haven't had one in about 3 weeks and it feels like time has stopped. I'll be sure to update tomorrow, with hopefully some happy news.
Also, I'm really tired today. Not really because of pregnancy, but because I was up till 11 live blogging the Bachelorette with my favorite homegirls. (Hi favorite BISHES!!)

Oh hi GKU
Allow me to shamelessly AW my offspring. Tankgirl turned 3 months old on Sunday. Her current goal in life is to shove all the soft things in her mouth, hopefully at once. Likes include having full conversations with the castle and tree decals above her changing table, hip carries in the ring sling, and making funny faces with daddy. Dislikes include the end of bath time, extended tummy time, and that her hippo toy can't fit entirely into her mouth. Next week she starts daycare part time and the week after goes full time when I go back to work. I really don't want to go back to work, but she is more than ready for daycare. Now for pics. As always PDQ

Hey all! 17+5 today and feeling lots of wiggles lately. We just got back from Disney World (shoutout to onesweetworld for her awesome travel agenting!). Here are a couple of my favorite pics of me/us and the girls:
They were the size of chipmunks at 17 weeks, so I had to take pictures with the most famous chipmunks ever! Chip and Dale were so excited!
Photographers would start taking our photos and then notice my shirt and get all excited! So cute!
Our names were at the bottom of this shirt, so excuse the scribbles!

longhornwino0907, your miracles shirt is giving me the warmest, happiest of feels. I LOVE it and I love what it means. How fun for your little ladies to get to go to the most magical place on earth already!

We had another u/s yesterday morning at 7 weeks. It was taking my RE a long time to tell us what was going on. I figured something was wrong and started to panic. Nothing was wrong but he discovered Baby B yesterday.
I seemed to have caught that twin bug going around here. Both babies have good strong heartbeats and are measuring right on target. H & I are really nervous and freaked out. I was worried about getting one healthy baby here, now I have to worry about two and carrying two babies with my size/frame. I'm still in shock and trying to adjust to the idea at this point, sans melt down/panic attack.
I hit the halfway mark on Sunday. I'm 19w2d today, and hitting halfway was huge for me. Everything is starting to feel more real. I'm pretty positive I felt a good hard kick this weekend (up until now, it's been flutters and head-butts) from somebody.
We have all the big stuff done in the nursery. There's a dresser, two cribs, and a ceiling fan (necessary this far south) in there now. I need to spend some time cleaning after our marathon assembly session this weekend. We ordered posters and prints to hang in there this weekend and I finished their TARDIS blankets last week. I still need to work on the crib skirts (more Dr. Who) and some changing pad covers (even more Dr. Who) and the quilt I started before they were born (Star Wars). These babies are going to have a very early and very thorough sci-fi education. I plan to have all the big stuff done by 25 weeks because I'm terrified of winding up on bed rest. We're well on our way to having that done. This weekend is going to involve travel, so next weekend will be framing and hanging everything we ordered and hopefully finishing the sewing. My sewing chair sucks, but I'm not ready to buy a nice one yet.
longhornwino0907, amazing shirt and photos! Also, I know it's pointed out pretty much every week, but there are soooo many twins happening in this thread! Yay for MORE babies!
AFM, I'm hanging out at 22w 6d and feeling ok. Heartburn/reflux has started to kick in, but Tums (which were my magical remedy last time around) make my mild nausea much worse. Currently experimenting with not eating + drinking at the same time to see if that helps. I'm looking forward to having DD feel baby kicking - you can definitely feel it on the outside at this point, but baby seems to stop moving any time a hand is place on my tummy.
Love all the updates and always hoping for more BFPs!
I had my glucose tolerance test this morning. I don't know, I'm broken. I found the drink fine (although I want to brush my teeth) and cruising the boards helped the pass the time.
Clearly, this all means I will fail and need to do the three hour. CLEARLY.
House is slowly coming along. We're having a "shower" of sorts this weekend with my husband's family. So, that should be interesting!
