Here I am at 23 weeks pregnant
with my second set of twins. I am feeling eh, not too bad. Since I am over
halfway through this pregnancy, I figured I would share some answers to some
commonly asked questions:
What
am I craving? Sweets. Chips A’Hoy cookies, Star Crunches, and
Pop Tarts mainly.
How
am I feeling? Easily exhausted. Sore abdomen, sore legs, and headaches.
Super heartburn and indigestion. Oh, and insomnia has set in.
What
do I miss? Eating. Everything makes me sick with heartburn and
indigestion, and the twins have my stomach squished to the size of a tennis
ball so I can barely eat much at all. Yet my taste buds and brain scream “ I am
still starving!” oh, and sleep.
Weight
gain? About 20lbs. Although it feels like 50.
Baby
movement? Yes! They are acrobats! Just like my last twins. They are
especially active in the evening.
Best
moment this week? I had some painful Braxton Hicks contractions
and I could distinctly feel a baby’s head during them!
Maternity
clothes? Please, I am measuring about 30 weeks pregnant so I have
been in yoga pants for a while now. I just recently had to switch to
specifically maternity tops because they are made to be longer and cover my new
bump.
