Baby's size: Apple, almost four inches long weighing about 2.5 oz.
Baby's Development: The babies are busy moving amniotic fluid through their nose and upper respiratory tract, which helps the primitive air sacs in their lungs develop. Legs are growing longer than arms now and they can move all of their joints and limbs. Although the eyelids are still fused shut, they can sense light. Not much for the babies to taste but they are forming taste buds.

Gender: It has been confirmed, (2) girls and (1) boy. We do have names but have not shared them yet.
Weight gain: 12lbs ( no change )

Maternity clothes: Yes, I am wearing a regular shirt today and if it wasn't stretchy it would not have made it over my bump.
Stretch marks: Nope
Belly button in or out: In
Wedding ring on or off: On
Sleep: I am sleeping pretty terrible right now. I get up to pee at least once and I can not breath so I am snoring. I have a common pregnancy symptom which has a name, "rhinitis of pregnancy". It is the increased blood flow coupled with swollen sinus membranes.
Symptoms: Headaches aren't as bad this week. I suppose you can call my cervical polyp a side effect. My mouth now has raw spots where my gums are sensitive. Oh, the ultrasound tech was also able to show me that the babies (all 3) were pushing into my bladder on Saturday. Weird looking but she told me I better go before they push harder and I wet myself. lol

Food cravings: I had cottage cheese with tomatoes and Italian dressing last night as a snack, YUM! I'm excited about sushi tonight too.
Food aversions: I get burned out quick so this one is ever changing, this week cheeseburgers and bananas.
What I miss: Really would like a glass of wine for some reason. I would also like to be able to clean as I choose instead of deciding if I have had enough or more than enough activity for the day and letting that dictate turning a blind eye to the filth in my kitchen.
Movement: Still having the rolling feeling occasionally and then there is some pressure. I have to check where my pants hit when I have the pressure feeling because I think it may be the pants but they aren't laying there.
Mood: Fine still, thank goodness I am good at holding my tongue.
Best moment this week: We found out the genders for sure which is awesome although I feel like I already knew. That is what I guessed from the beginning. I also have all the shower dates on the calendar. I will be at a shower every Saturday of June. It will be a fun month :)

Looking forward to: My doctor appointment with Dr. Jamie next week. I want to see the babies again and I want to hear what she has to say about the polyp.
Yay for 2 sweet girls and one sweet boy! I'm so happy for your (not so) little family!! :) Love you all!
