34 Weeks pregnant with twins and all it’s glory! I am definitely sporting some extra fluff these days and I’m not sure how my stomach can possibly stretch anymore. The thing I do know for sure though is just how incredible a woman’s body is! The ability to create and sustain life is beyond beautiful and I thank God every day I am able to harbor these amazing miracles.
The Twinsies are still looking healthy and are now about 4.5 lbs! Which means I am carrying 9lbs of baby a long with everything else at this point. We can see from the ultrasounds that both of them have a lot of hair (insert giddy monkey emoji) which I am dying over! I have just now started to feel more uncomfortable the last two to three weeks, and do experience some restlessness at night. I’ve also started to experience swelling in my legs, ankles and feet which I am told is common when carrying multiples. So nothing too major or out of ordinary. Thankfully my body up to this point has carried the twinsies so well. I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that I was very healthy and active pre pregnancy, and have maintained as much activity I’ve felt comfortable with throughout my entire pregnancy. Twins or no twins, I am a believer that health and fitness is key for a more positive pregnancy experience.
Kalab and I are getting closer to finalizing names and nesting is in full swing over here! I am constantly daydreaming about holding them and picturing them around the house. It’s getting so real! I already love these little babes so much and can’t wait for the day I get to finally hold them and be their momma. Only a few more weeks to go!
