Week 23

Well, I'm on week 23, and into my last week of work. I worked one full week when I tracked back on, and I am now doing half days this week. My long term sub is doing the mornings, and I am doing the afternoons. I am actually really exhuasted working just 3 hours! What a turn around. I still feel fine, just exhausted when up for too long. The Dr. now has me on bedrest 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon. As of now, I have gained 33 pounds. WOW! It's for a good cause though. That means our boys are getting bigger and stronger! Right now Baby A and C are each 1.7 pounds and Baby B is 1.6. They are developing as they should be and everything looks good so far. The babies are officially moving around like crazy. I don't think I eve got to that "butterfly" sensation, I think we went straight to kicking me in the belly. I can feel it really strong from the outside. It's weird because it comes from all over. One side, then all the way on the other. I think they are already fighting!

This is a look at our "baby room" PRE baby shower. Yikes!!!

NURSERY

YEAH!!! We have a nursery in the making, and even better....ALL 3 CRIBS FIT!!! There is even walking space in the room! Scotty has been working really hard on everything, and we are so excited with how it is turning out. Our theme is "Sports" (shocking, I know) and the colors are navy, tan, maroon, green. So cute!

Week 16

We are venturing into the 5th month of this pregnancy. I have to say I am still feeling great. My back hurts once in awhile, but it's tolerable. I need to say all the good things now, so when I'm in the end, I can come and look back at how easy the beginning of this adventure was. I have been doing fine at school, but I am also off track right now :) When I go back on track, I hope to stay for 2 weeks, but my Dr. wants me to be done after 1 week. It's hard to go from the working world to just being a couch potato, but everyone says to enjoy it while it lasts. The dr. says everything is still looking good. The babies are about 8 inches long and are all in separate sacks, so they are franternal. I informed him my goal is to carry these babies until 39 weeks, and he laughed at me! Claims I will be "crying and begging them to take the babies out" by week 32. Yikes! Fortunately, I am very competative, and that sounds like a challenge!

Week 13

We went in for out first appointment with the High Risk Dr. We both really like him. He asked if we would want to know what the genders were if he could see it, and we said YES!!! He said 2 boys and 1 girl, but a couple appointments later it turned into all 3 boys! Three little Scottys running around can be frightening or very cute....we'll see which way it goes. I think I have convinced him now we can try for the girl later down the line! Ha! We are both very excited and now we can start planning and decorating! Yeah!
