Fifth Month








This is my current month right now and we have definitely had quiet and adventure. I can feel the boys move and kick me all the time, in different parts of my tummy, as well as I can feel them up in my lower ribs and down to my lower pelvic area. I have some of my energy back and I eat like a pig most of the time. lol. about a week ago we had a bigger scare, I began to spot again and we called L & D to see if we should come in. They had me come in and hooked my up to all the monitors, heart rate monitor, contractions, give blood, do dilation check, urine sample the works. It was very scary for me and seemed so real, I was not anywhere close to having these babies. I'm only 22 wks. The Dr. put me on moderate bed rest and I am to stay in bed most of the day. I am off work now, which is kinda hard because time is going by so slow and now Shauna has to work more that usual. They have been very active this last week so I think they are over a lb now each. I will start posting blogs after each Dr visit now, as well as any updated I have. I already get Braxton Hicks which is normal for twins. My cervix is also measuring at 3.6cm at my last visit at 20wks which anything about 2.5cm is good. Shauna & her sister, Auntie Angela, get to feel the boys kick all the time it is so fun.


I am tired of getting up and going to the bathroom every couple hours while I am trying to sleep but anything for those babies. I also am starting to get the baby gitters, being 1st time moms I'm a little scared and hoping that I will be a great mommy. TWO babies is definitely going to be a challenge but I will manage as well as Shauna will be a great mommy as well.....Looking forward to keeping everyone posted on the upcoming milestones, appts, and updates!!!
