I'm rh - and have never had a shot :/

Things must be so much different where you guys are. I've had midwives tell me id need one if I have any sort of bleeding but they have never done a routine shot during pregnancy.

I'm in double digits today! Just got back from our vacation in the Bahamas yesterday. It was so relaxing. I ate so much I'm scared to see how much I gained at my midwife appt on wed

The rh factor only matters if you're type O blood.

LaMere-- I did the test and it told me "Formula cannot convincingly determine the gender of a baby for given dates" It made me laugh.

Geralyn-- Congrats on your double digits!

I took my daughter for a walk today so we could explore our new neighbourhood. It was so hot that I had to come home after about 45 minutes. We walked to the park and then walked around a bit. The good thing about it is I discovered the park has bathrooms so I don't have to be afraid of going out and having to pee. We are going to go back out later and find the splash pad.

Kiki- can't wait to see your scan pics!

Newlywed- Congrats on reaching 3rd tri!!!!

Geralyn- your post made me laugh, it's funny how going on vacation always makes your clothes a little tighter (pregnant or not)

So far so good on the low carb diet. Still havent talked with the diabetes specialist yet. Still waiting on them to call me to set up an appointment.. Its rough turning down all my favorites- especially starbucks! I steal a french fry when everyone else is eating them, that way I don't make myself crazy, or a sip of dh's soda.

Sorry everyone dealing with the failed glucose tests. I'm worried about that one myself. Not sure when I'll have it yet. Probably will get it scheduled at my next apt.

We are going to be cloth diapering our little ones. I just ordered the last few diapers we need can't wait till they arrive!

We are going to have the twins sleeping in a pack n play (with the bottom raised up to the higher point) next to my side of the bed at least for the first little bit. Once they start rolling they'll need to go to their own beds.

Love all the names! We're going with Brooke Alishea Rose and James Phillip Adam. We already call them Brooke and a James.

25 Weeks Today! Yay!

Back in January before I got pregnant we bought tickets to see Katy Perry. The concert is tomorrow night! I'm super excited but also nervous about how I'll handle being at a concert for several hours. Hope the people in front of me don't want to stand the entire time or I won't make it!

You will be fine, do you have seats or is it standing?

Also with you been 25 weeks today does that mean you have about 13 weeks left? I know in my area twin pregnancy are induced at 38 weeks x

37 weeks is considered full term with twins and I've heard the doctors will start getting antsy at that point. Assuming babies are doing fine and amniotic fluid/placentas etc all seem to be okay I won't be letting them induce me. I hate the whole concept induction. Unless there is a legit medical reason for it I say let them come when they're good and ready! A lot of the twin moms in my multiples group go just before 37 weeks though so we'll see if I make it that far. If my baby Brooke is breech ten it will need to be a c section and in that case I assume it would be around 37 weeks.

I did my 1 hour glucose test at 10:45 this morning. Has anyone else felt really tired afterwards?

Congrats everyone on 3rd trimester and double digits! I have a couple days left till double digits.

Yesterday my baby boy was kicking me really good and I was able to see my belly moving! So fun! I love feeling them move around in there.

The concert went really well and I dressed up haha it was fun!



I've had a lot of ankle swelling lately. No fun.

Have an OB apt this Wed. Don't think I get an ultrasound though. Will probably get my glucose test scheduled. Blah. I'm dreading that one. I also need to set up the hospital tour.

Supposed to still have 6 weeks of work left but I'm feeling miserable! Wonder if I'll make it that far without collapsing!

I was pretty tired, but bounced back by the next day. I hope you pass!

The 3 hour test was much much harder to recover from, took me a couple days.

I hope it doesn't get too rough on you, carrying one baby is tough stuff I could only imagine two :/

Awh I hope you manage with work, it does start to get quite hard with twins! In any of my single pregnancies I never got close to feeling how I did with the twins, not even when I went overdue with my singles. It was rough but its so amazing when you see those two babies at the end I dont know how your still managing work hehe

I don't like induction either, its much nicer when babies come on their own. I was induced at 38 weeks
this is my last set of photos that were taken at 37 weeks. I had started getting horizontal stetchmarks and could barely move which is why I didnt bother getting 38 week photos wish I did now tho.
