Ok, ok, I KNOW it's been WAY too long. Things are going great with my pregnancy. We found out at our 9 week ultrasound that we are expecting identical twins. Then, found out today, that they're identical twin GIRLS!!!! We're so excited. My gut said girls, but I was afraid it was just wishful thinking. Maybe there is something to that whole "gut feeling" thing, after all. So, we've decided our little bladder kicker will be Natalie Elisabeth and the one up in my ribs is Kathryn (Kate) Rebekkah.
Things are going well. I'm finally over all that first trimester exhaustion and general feeling of yuckiness. I still tire easily, but not nearly as bad as it was earlier on. It's FINALLY sinking in that we're having TWO babies. We waited so long, and I think for the first several weeks, I was afraid to get too attached. I regret that I haven't let myself enjoy this pregnancy like I should have, but I think it's been self preservation - I couldn't let myself get TOO attached. It's finally feeling real now, though. I feel little kicks in my bladder (Natalie) and on my left side (Kate). I'm getting uncomfortable at night - both hips fall asleep regardless of which side I'm sleeping on, my arms fall asleep, I can't lay on my back or my stomach, and I now have to get a rolling start to get out bed. I'm loving every minute. :-)
I'll try my best to do better in documenting this second half of my pregnancy than I have on the first. :-)
