Aug Mommies

So how are we all feeling?  Any news symptoms or huge changes?  What about those baby bumps?  How much weight have you gained?

Well I'll start  I'm now 22.6 weeks and I'm huge LOL well nobody can mistake me for just fat anymore.  And so far I've gained 10 lbs.......not to shabby for twins.  I'm still having trouble with my heart acting crazy had a pretty bad episode last night but ahh the joys of pregnancy.......but besides that I'm great....i'm in the miserable stage already 5 minutes of walking in Wal Mart and I'm ready to lay of the floor......but only 3-4 more months for me.

Hey all,
Im 22w4d's and i already have anxiety about not being pregnant. Not that i dont want to meet my baby, i definitely do i just want him/her to be tucked neatly away inside once ive met them. Seriously jealous of kangaroos. My baby is extremely active. I know exactyly what blueeyedtabbycat means when she says she wants to laydown relax and fully feel the kicks. My favourite thing to do at the moment is feel the kicks just from the inside then feel with my hand on the outside too and then watch my belly move as he/she kicks.
I dont know my weight gain yet...i lost a lot in my first trimester but i think i have definitely put it all back on by now.
Our nursery is all painted and curtained, but as our house is a share house until the end of july (eeeeek) and the inhabitant of that room just moved out we have to find some stranger to move in until then...into our pretty painted room.=(

We are doing much better than before.  I have a 2 year old too, so am exhausted all the time.  I stay home with him so at least I can sometimes nap when he does, but there is so much to do.  I started putting the nursery together this weekend.  We have the furniture put together, the bedding ordered, and we started buying clothes!!! I am excited to have a pink room for our little girl.  I am still surprised that we are going to have a little girl - wow that hasn't sunk in yet.  I have gained maybe 6 pounds so far, I hope to be up to 10 by my next appointment.  After not gaining any in the first trimester I don't want to have to see a nutritionist or anything.  It seems like things are going fast for me.  This is the last time I am going to be pregnant, so I wanted to cherish is, but my goodness, there isn't much time for that in a few short months this will all be done!!!

Hey girls, I'm currently around 25 1/2 weeks pregnant and everything seems to be going very well.. I've gained a total of 6lbs but my next appointment is tomorrow and I'm sure its gone up some more.. I'm feeling Lucas move a lot more now.. he's getting a lot stronger.. I'm completely exhausted which seems strange and the lower back pain is setting in..I believe its from carrying him low.. other than that everything seems good

Time is actually going by quickly for me now but I don't have as long to wait as the rest of you since my OB says my twins will come in July...that's not far away now at all...I'm so ready to get them out but not til I know they are big enough....I got the nursey 99% done this weekend so that's a good feeling I'm getting so excited....

Hi all. I cant believe everyone knows how much weight they have put on!! Everytime I go for an OB appointment I never look at the scales, and I never jump on them at home - I just dont want to know! I actually thought I would put on heaps, but its really all on my belly for now, so I'm pretty happy with that, although I have heard you really start packing it on around 24 to 26 weeks :(

I can feel my little boy kicking all the time and I love it. I think it is just the most amazing feeling in the world. Dh felt him kick through my belly about a week ago and he loved it! I have a routine OB appointment tomorrow and I have to ask him about some burning I have been feeling 'down there' (sorry). I thought it was a UTI but have since had 3 tests with the dr's who have done tests and said its come back negative and its most likely the baby puting pressure on my bladder. But appart from that everything else is going really, really well.

blueeyetabbycat - yes...time is just dragging for me too! I said to dh the other day I cant wait another 18 weeks to meet him!! Its going sooooo slow!
