24 weeks

I didn't realize it had been so long since I last posted.

Let's see, what's new...not a whole lot. My belly is getting bigger and bigger. I REALLY miss sleeping on my back. Sometimes I'll lay on my back for a minute or two just to savor it before I roll over and try to go to sleep. Although, really, I can only handle a minute or two because being flat on my back makes it hard to breathe. The body pillow I got from my parents for Christmas has been a lifesaver. Rolling over in bed is a challenge. I find myself getting up every two hours or so to go to the bathroom at night.

The babies are super active these days. I am feeling them on the outside pretty often, but their movement is still so sporadic Hubby hasn't been able to feel them yet.

I don't know if I've announced the names yet, but we've decided on Natalie and Kaitlyn. No middle names yet, we're still working on it.

I was supposed to have a doctor appointment this week, but they had to reschedule, so now it its next Thursday. I'll have to do that fun glucose test where you drink the sugary drink and wait and hour...that should be fun. I am really hoping I pass, because I don't to have to try even harder to watch what I eat. I already am trying to avoid salty foods (trying is the key word), also I can't have anything with too much spice/acidity. I can get heartburn by just looking at a tomato. Having to watch my sugar too would just be a pain.

Next week we'll also get a good look at the babies. The doc will measure them and make sure they are growing well. We'll also be able to confirm that they are girls. I really hope he's not wrong now that I have my mind set on girls.

Well, I think that about wraps it up. Until next time...
