Baby's size: Lime, approximately 2 inches long and .50 ounces each.
Baby's development: The baby's fingers are opening and closing, toes are curling, eye muscles will clench and their mouths now make suckling movements. If I poke my abdomen the babies will squirm in response. The kidneys are now excreting urine into the bladder. Nerve cells are multiplying rapidly. Their faces are now unquestionably human. Eyes have moved from the sides to the front of their heads and ears are right where they should be.
Gender: ? But we looked the statistics up last night and it is 37.5% that we will have either a boy/2 girl or girl/2 boy combination. It is only 12.5% that you would have three of the same sex.

Weight gain: 8 lbs. I guess that isn't too bad for the first trimester.
Maternity clothes: Yes, I ordered another pair of maternity pants and my SIL brought me some shirts yesterday. I am still wearing my regular sweaters but I have to tug on them.
Stretch marks: Nope
Belly button in or out: In and I can now see inside my belly button when standing in the mirror so I assume my uterus has expanded to the belly button area.
Wedding ring on or off: On
Sleep: Sleeping better this week but still tired.
Symptoms: I have developed a new symptom which I think is Geographic Tongue? I have spots on my tongue that are missing taste buds. Weird but when I looked it up, it says it is genetic (Todd has had this before) and common to occur during pregnancy. Hopefully it will go away although it doesn't really bother me. My rear is also very sore quickly in chairs. I suppose it is from all the extra blood flow down there but it just aches.

Food cravings: Waffle or Pancake, really it is about the syrup. Strange I know but I woke up several mornings wanting them. Kyle went to Waffle House Sunday night to get me one :)
Food aversions: None this week
What I miss: Hanging out with my friends just as long as my heart desired. I get so tired and my butt starts aching to where I start shifting in my chair.
Movement: I have flutters that may or may not be them moving, they say with multiples that you can feel them a lot sooner. I will be glad when I can so my mind will be put at ease on a daily basis.
Mood: Still very annoyed but also emotional.
Best moment this week: I guess going to the dr last week. We got to see the babies squirming around on the screen which is always comforting.
Looking forward to: My final appointment with my RE tomorrow. I will have my last ultrasound with them and say goodbye. It is such a milestone! I will be entering the second trimester next week which is really a big deal. It also means I have to get my butt in gear and make some plans. I have so much to do at the house I have recruited my mother to help me organize and figure out what to do with stuff in the spare bedroom. I also need to clean out my clothes and store the ones I will be wearing again someday as well as give away the rest to make room for maternity clothes.
