yeah I think dizzy is probably not a good thing, I would have it checked if you're still having trouble with it

yay your scan is almost here rojo! We're planning on keeping them in the same crib for a little while.. I just really wanted the two cribs to match =)

sorry to hear you are sick trixie.. I haven't heard that about honey, I know I've had some although not a lot. I also heard nuts were ok unless you were allergic (but that seems common sense)

had the rest of my anatomy scan today. yay for seeing babies again! They are only measuring 21 weeks but my doc said that a lot of times growth can be hard to measure in the 2nd trimester, especially with twins. The good news is they are basically the same size which is the most important part. My next appointment is in 4 weeks and is on my bday!! And then later that same week I'll get my 3d scan done. Very exciting! I can't believe how fast this year has started going!

A couple new pics.. the face ones still look weird to me so I'm posting the feet ones, because they are so cute! The first one has A's head and B's feet, the 2nd is just B's feet. Apparently they were lying with their feet in each other's faces lol..

[Rachael1981]

Yay for getting your pram! We ordered ours last night as it was on offer but only whilst stocks last, but saved us about £80 on the prices we had seen elsewhere for the same one!

Had my scan yesterday too, everything is great and baby was very active!

 

[trixie79]

How's everyone doing? My little girl is such a wriggler/kicker I swear she is awake more than asleep, hope that isnt the case once shes born lol. Love feeling it though, and when daddy to be keeps touching my stomach to feel her.

Yey on the prams trix and rachael x

 

[StranjeGirl]

Hi everyone!!
HOw is everyone doing? Congrats to those who made it to v-day and who are getting close! I wish we could speed things up to get to the end and then slow things down once we get there lol!
I had bleeding again last week It had been 7 weeks exactly(had spotting on and off but no big bleeds) and I got up in the middle of the night to pee and was thinking "yes! I made it 7 weeks" and there was blood Everything looked ok at the doctors though. I feel like my constipation has a lot to do with it, and unfortunately this past couple weeks it has been bad. I can't seem to get it under control! Sorry for the TMI!
So my latest worry has been freaking out about excessive ultrasounds. I keep reading bad things about ultrasounds. I don't by into it too much, but I have had so many...like almost 20, and I know I will have many more as I go in every two weeks now and they do an ultrasound at every appt. I also use a doppler at home and started worrying that maybe I have ruined the baby's hearing with all this. She doesn't seem to respond to noise. Is that abnormal? She will respond ot movement, like if I poke at my stomach, but not sound. SHould I be worried?
One last question. I thought someone on the cbfm thread had experienced vulvar vestibulitis. Does anyone remember this? Someone on another thread has it and her doctor's don't know anything about it, and I was trying to see if there were any exercises to do on your own. I had it along with my other pelvic issues, but I was in physical therapy which helped me. She doesn't have that option. If anyone remembers who it was, please let me know! THanks and hope everyone is well!!! We are all getting so far along!!!!!

yay for 25 wks and the pram trixie.. I know what you mean about xmas shopping, I need to get started too so I can get it done with and out of the way. Luckily I usually do most of mine online anyways.

glad your scan went well Rachael. You are about at the point where it seemed time began to move a little faster.

thats cool about your little girl dreamer. I still worry because my two are pretty lazy.. I still haven't felt any really good kicks, still just the occasional flutters. But DH and I are pretty laid back ourselves so.. who knows..

sorry to hear about the bleeding stranje that has got to be frustrating. Glad everything is still looking good at the docs. I've had some pretty bad constipation lately myself so I've been trying to increase my fiber uptake - eating bran buds with my cereal in the morning and lots of raisins. DH bought some dried prunes but I just can't bring myself to try one. I don't know about the whole ultrasound issue although I get one every time I go in too. Try not to worry too much, it's important to make sure everything is going along ok. I haven't used a doppler although I think a friend just gave me one so I will probably try it out. I don't know about the not responding to noise since mine don't seem to respond to much of anything at this point. I don't remember anyone on the cbfm thread having vv, you should be able to search that thread directly for any posts about it though

As for me just trucking along, trying to get the house all in order. Seems like such an easy thing to do, but after work I'm too tired and the weekends seem to get filled with other stuff. I did find most of the floor in one room last night so I guess that's a start. This weekend it's the symphony, registering and having my brother-in-law fix my car. Turns out he can do for $200 what the auto shop wanted to charge me $900 for! I just hope it's as easy as he says it will be!

hope everyone is having a great week

 

[Tobaira]

ok so I know I'm the last one that posted, but I'm excited so I have to post again. I finally started feeling strong kicks from baby A yesterday.. it was only about 3 so I wasn't sure, it felt like a muscle twitch and you could feel it from the outside. But then I didn't feel it again the rest of the day so I thought maybe I was just imagining it. But this morning she is going at it strong. I'm so excited DH is finally going to get a chance to feel baby movement =)

 

[lilrojo]

Tobira-that is so exciting.. about time for little ladies.. my one peanut has been doing quite the gymnastics lately...

How is everyone doing.. any plans for the upcoming weekend..

Mine is work on babys room some..

 

[baby2310]

Ah so pleased for you Tobaira hun x
I started feeling what i can only describe as the tiniest little punches on Sunday and feeling them more each day its so exciting! Can't wait for OH to be able to feel them too x
