24 Weeks

We had an ultrasound at Maternal Fetal Medicine on March 13th and everything looked perfect.  The girls each weighed 1 lb 4 oz.  Unfortunately, they were both facing my back, so we didn't get any good pictures.  We'll have to wait another month to see the girls again. 

Both girls are moving around a lot at this point.  Not only can I feel them kicking and punching, but I can see them moving around in my belly.  It's weird.  Joe can feel them kick now, too.  He loves it!  I'm not shy about letting people feel them, so if you're interested, just say the word.  

I have an appointment with my OB tomorrow to check on my weight gain and to have my belly measured.  Speaking of belly...

 
  
  
I had to take these pictures myself, so they're not the best.  Joe will take some better ones next week.  I should be getting pretty big from here on out.  The girls are supposed to grow about a half a pound a week from now until the end.  I don't even want to think about how big I'm going to be.  Does anyone have a spare tent that I'll be able to borrow?  Perhaps a tarp with a neck hole?  Anyone?

I do have a beautiful top that you could wear to the shower, if you'd like. I'll mail it to you, but don't feel obligated to like/keep it.
You look fabulous!!
Love to all 4 of you!
