Lambchops you have the cutest little bump!!

I bought my stroller today! It was on Craigslist and $650 new and I paid $390 for the baby jogger city select with 2nd seat! My 1st purchase for the babies!!!

My triplets @ 16+5. Definitely getting bigger.

LOL I'm starting to feel that way myself already! I have lower back pain almost all the time. And depending on how I lay down or sit, I can't believe the amount of pressure I feel! And my three really aren't that heavy yet either! This is definitely gonna be a long couple of weeks!

 

[Deethehippy]

You two are both doing great with your triplets - i am uncomfortbale enough at 20 weeks with twins, can't get comfy when i sit or stand or lie!

We also made our very first purchase yesterday! We got the maclaren twin triumph. Have heard mixed reviews about it but we like it and hope it will be ok for the girls. I dont plan on leaving the house much the first 6-8 weeks anyway and when I do we'll use the car seats or carrycots.

Looks great BellaDonna! Have you found out the genders yet? Do you want to find out?

I am sore already too. My mid back hurts when I sit, but it's OK when I stand and walk. And my groin/crotch feels like it has taken a beating! I am actually the most comfortable when I am standing/walking. Too bad I have a desk job and sit for 9+ hours a day!

Jogami - congrats on your 1st purchase too! Its so weird seeing a twin stroller in my living room. Its like, wow! I am really having twins!!

Belly your belly looks great!

How exciting for you girls getting your strollers! We did get the double snap n go for when they are infants, but have not gotten the jogger yet.. still having a hard time deciding!? Some friends of ours said not to buy one because they bought a new one they used for their twins 6 years ago.. but idk what kind it is etc... or if its one I can use when they are little and that's important to me...I've never really been a jogger, but I want to try to do something once I recover to get back into shape sooner.
Right now I am working on the girls nursery and getting it all dialed in...it's turning out fab! Got to start printing some pics and getting some stuff on the walls too...
Course we REALLY need to pick some names!!!
I LOVE Harper and Hayden for the girls, but my hubby does not know if he loves them... I already have a daughter with an 'H' name, so I think it would be neat for all my girls names to start with 'H'? What do you girls think of those names for girls?

 

[jogami]

I LOVE Harper Sorry I've always associated Hayden with a boy just because I went to school with two guys named Hayden. I love the H idea though for the girls, so lovely

 

[lizziedripping]

Loving the names Cali although Hayden in the Uk is a definite boys name (not that it matters to you cos you're not in the UK!). Harper is a favourite of mine.

Some other 'H' names just for fun - Heloise, Halle, Helena, Hayley, Hannah, Harriet (Hattie for short), Holly, and Honor. That's all I can come up with for now, and all quite 'British', but thought it might help to inspire lol. Picking 'H' names is a great idea btw xx

 

[lizziedripping]

Omg Jogami, snap! I must have been typing at the same time as you saying almost exactly the same thing -spooky lol xx

I think Hayden is more boyish over in nz too, I like Harper tho

San Fran - We definitely want to find out what we're having. But my last appointment was when I was only 15 weeks and we didn't do a scan. My next appointment is actually next week. And then I see the Dr. from Maternal Fetal Medicine (MFM) the following week for the Level II scan. (My OB/GYN is consulting with MFM rather than having them be my regular Dr's; which is what I prefer.) Soooo.....I'm hoping I can convince my OB/GYN to do a gender check at my next visit. LOL If not, then I'll have to just wait until my Level II scan, and they should definitely be able to tell me genders then!

Thankfully, I don't have any groin pains, at least not yet. Sitting for 9 hours or more a day must be pretty rough on you. I'm sure it's not helping with your circulation. Luckily I don't actually have a job anymore, so that's not an issue for me. I hope you start to feel some relief!!

 

[Deethehippy]

I like 'Mabel' and' Lottie' for our girls but when i tell people they say they are horrible esp Mabel At the end of the day it's down to the parents what name they choose for their babies don't you think?

I get fed up with peoples comments sometimes (sorry to vent) Like 'ooh were they planned or an accident?' LOL How exactly do you plan identical twins? Although we are more than thrilled obviously

 

[san fran shan]

CalieGirl - I like your name ideas! Hayden is a girl's name here! A lot of names can cross genders anyways. And some don't. Like my supervisor at work. HER name is Kevin. What?? She has like 7 brothers or something. Guess her parents were in denial. I love the name Holly for a girl (obvi), but my last name starts with an H as well and I am worried it will sound too Porn Star-ish, LOL.

Bella-I am so excited for you to find out! Any hunches? Hopes? My next scan is next week too! Its the 2 hour long anatomy scan. We def will find out then! SOO anxious! Do you feel them moving around yet?

I already have back pain, too - at 16 weeks?! This cannot be good. I went to Victoria's Secret because my bra was feeling snug...they re-measured me (I had been measured as 34 Full B/Small C pre-preg) and I had to buy a 34 DD...DOUBLE DD! What?! I knew they were bigger but SERIOUSLY!? I'm only 5'2'' and started at 117 lbs. That is massive on me. And I still have over half my pregnancy AND breastfeeding to go.

I'm pretty sure all 8 lbs I have gained are in my boobs.

Anyway, to join the name convo - I also like Harper! Hayden I've seen more as a boy name, but I had a mom at the hospital I work at name her baby girl Hayden not too long ago, so it seems it's becoming more popular for girls!
