26 weeks, 3 days

Nothing major or eventful to report, thank goodness! The girls have had great NST's (heart monitoring at least 20 min) & no scares. I am now getting them 4 times a day rather than 3. I think that's more for my sanity than anything. When they had some issues, it made me very anxious & keep wondering/fearing what could happen. I also get sonograms 2 times/week rather than just once. That's really to lay eyes on them & to make sure they continue to grow at a fairly equal pace & that the oxygen & blood flow in their cords are good. It definitely makes me feel better!

My mom has been here since Sat which has been nice, for all of us. I think it's really been helpful to Bryan to give him a bit of a break in the evenings but also great support to our kiddos & me. She's supposed to drive home Sat night but it looks like winter will hit Dallas tomorrow night so we'll see. 

I had a soon yesterday & babies looked great. Both were head down facing each other, so cute! Weights were approx 1 lb, 11oz (Pieces) & 2 lb, 1 oz (Bits). This is an estimate & can fluctuate a bit since they're so little but they both are doing great, no twin to twin transfusion concerns.

Ani & Brody have been able to visit almost everyday which has been amazing. Sometimes they cry & say they don't want to leave me, which of course makes me cry. But for the most part, they leave without any problems. Looking forward to a date night in with B on Fri, weather permitting.

Weight loss/gain: +29 pounds. My appetite is fairly normal these days but I do have to eat small portions multiple times/day.
Maternity clothes: yes, lots of yoga pants/leggings.
Symptoms:  Heartburn has gotten pretty bad but am taking Protonix & that's really helped. I have to sleep slightly upright at night. 

Sex (of baby): Girls!
Sleep: I'm finding it harder & harder to fell & stay asleep. My anxious mind just doesn't want to stop thinking. Still have to get up 3-4 times/night to go to the bathroom.
Best moment this week: seeing the girls on sonogram, seeing my mom & babies (the big ones :).
Movement: A lot! They are active little girls. Bits is a lot more active & loves to "swim" away from the monitors.
Food cravings: I really like eggs & bacon lately, apple juice, lemon lime soda & really anything covered in cheese.
Belly button in or out? In but it's stretched pretty tight.
How the kiddos are taking it ?  They both love to hug & kiss my belly. They have a hard time leaving the hospital sometimes but love to talk on the phone & tell me about their day. They are having fun/a nice distraction with grandma & Christmas decorating.
What I miss?  Right now I miss seeing my other 2 babies, although am enjoying the quiet of my room & ability to do whatever I am up for doing. It'd be nice to be home in general.

What I'm looking forward to?  Seeing my family each & every chance I get.
Milestones: Everyday is a milestone & I'm so thankful for each one I get still pregnant!
What I'm nervous about: Every time they put me on the monitor or I go for a sono-if something is wrong.
