17 Weeks

 

How Far Along:  17 weeks. Our babies are capable of swallowing, blinking and sucking.  Their ears start to pop out and their necks are getting longer. Their eyes are still shut at this time. 

Total Weight Gain:  142 this morning!  Trying to get to the 20lb weight gain by week 24.

Maternity Clothes:  I was going to go shopping for more maternity clothes this weekend, but it decided to snow/sleet so that didn't happen.

 

Sleep:  Sleeping through the night, but starting to get uncomfortable in certain positions.

 

Best Moment This Week: We started our registry this week -- definitely gave us a perspective of how much this baby stuff actually costs.  And to need almost double of everything is getting overwhelming.  Had a breakdown at Buy Buy Baby when we were looking at nursery items...not only the cost, but space all of this furniture will take up!

 

Movement:  None yet...but I'm so anxious to feel my boys! 

 

Looking Forward To:  My next appointment is on Tuesday with Dr. Paul.  It's the full anatomy scan.  I can't wait to see my boys again and see how big there are!
